Here is a great complete set of 1967 Tab LA Dodgers bottle caps found on eBay. Below is a complete set of 18. On a another matter, do they make Tab anymore?

A Blog Highlight: The Infinite Baseball Card Set
I believe this blog has already been highlighted on a number of different collector blogs already, so this website may be nothing new to some of you. However, since the proprietor recently unveiled a Jackie Robinson beauty I though it would only be proper to share it.Gary Joseph Cieradkowski is illustrating his own card set with his own unique design featuring
"forgotten players, Negro Leaguers, Hall of Famers before they made the pros, semi-pro heroes and anyone else I always wanted a card of."He is calling it The Infinite Baseball Card Set and you should check it out.
If I were so inclined to make such a set, of players I have always wanted to make; then, I would also have to include players and personalities such as Alexander Cartwright, Hugh Jennings, Victor Starffin (the Russian born Japanese League pitcher from the 1940's), Martin Dihigo (Negro Leaguer), Maud Nelson & Lizzie Murphy (legendary female players from the 1890's to 1930's) and Horace Wilson (who brought Baseball to Japan). Of course, an occasional vintage Brooklyn Dodger would be good too.
Hint! Hint!

Blog Kiosk: 3/14/2010
- Here is an interesting article from Lakers Noise about Jerry West autobiography that touches on sex. What I find interesting, though, is this one quote on this blog.
Joe McDonnell: “I could tell you Dodger stories for a year and tomorrow about stuff going on down in little rooms at the club house before the games. It’s prevalent in all sports. In baseball, it can happen during a game. In basketball, it always happens after a game.”
- MLB fired 3 umpire supervisors over the winter. (Hat Tip: Halos Heaven)
- Go to Umps Care Charities to check out their auction.
- Here is a great story about Jimmy Claxton, the first black man on a Baseball card.
- The Elliott Museum in Stuart, FL has a Baseball exhibit, via TCPalm.com. (Hat Tip: Sports Card Report)
- A CGI animated short created by Rodrigo Blaas called ALMA.

You Rock, Tommy
I think the reason I, and most of Dodger Nation, loves Tommy is because of his unabashed homerism. He is a true blue Dodger cheerleader. No ways around it. He is "in your face" when it comes to his love of the team and I love him for it.
As further proof, check out this series of tweets he put out this afternoon.
