A few weeks ago Cody Bellinger become the first Dodger player in the modern era (since 1900) to hit five home runs in his first 11 career games in the major leagues. Now, this past Sunday Cody is the fastest Dodger ever to have walloped 10 home runs at the start of their career -- at 31 games.
This feat breaks Yasiel Puig's record setting mark of 44 games in 2013.
To honor this accomplishment Topps has issued a 2017 Topps Now card, and they made a limited number of certified autographed variations cards available. Unfortunately, all of those autographed cards are now sold out as of this posting. Go here to check out and order the normal base card. It'll be available until Tuesday morning. On the reverse it reads:
Rookie Cody Bellinger continues to impress as he is now the fastest Dodgers player in the modern era to reach 10 career home runs. Bellinger achieved the feat in just his 31st game when he blasted a three-run homer in the bottom of the second. The home run gave the Dodgers the lead for good as they went on to win by a score of 9-4.UPDATE: The print run for this card is 1,107 copies.
Below is a peek at the five different certified autographed Cody Bellinger cards - now sold out - paired with the corresponding card numbers and sale prices. As you can see, they sold for huge bucks.
