📣 DAD’S TAKEON JIM THOME

A 2026 release of a card depicting a 2002 season nearly a quarter-century after the fact? Someone at Panini finally realized there's no statute of limitations on commemorating a proper slugger. The Orange Pulsar treatment gives this throwback some flash, though collectors chasing Thome's Cleveland tenure have been spoiled for decades with options. At least they picked his best season to memorialize, which is more than can be said for most retrospective releases.

ABOUT JIM THOME

Jim Thome was drafted by the Cleveland Indians in the 13th round of the 1989 MLB Draft from Illinois Central College, and made his debut on September 4, 1991. Thome was part of a loaded Indians lineup that featured young stars like Kenny Lofton, Carlos Baerga, Albert Belle and Manny Ramirez, helping Cleveland reach the World Series in 1995 and 1997. His best year came in 2002, his last with the Indians, when he led the league in walks (122), hit a career high 52 home runs, posted a league leading .677 slugging percentage and had 146 hits and 118 RBI. After a 22-year career with Indians, Philadelphia Phillies, Chicago White Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, Minnesota Twins and Baltimore Orioles, Thome ranks seventh in major league history with 612 home runs and 24th with 1,699 runs batted in, while boasting a .276 career batting average.

This collection features a single 2026 Prizm Orange Pulsar parallel of Thome in his Indians uniform, highlighting his remarkable 2002 campaign when he set the franchise single-season home run record.
