The strikeout artist. A 2-way star. A fearless competitor.
The great Leon Day takes the mound!
Earn his Negro Leagues Series 87
in the Jackie Robinson Day Program, then turn it in to unlock his 99! -
Can't get the assist for Biz Mackey so I am out of luck

Join the club. I'd rather get 2 Doubles with Daniel Nava.

This is a W if all you have to do is exchange the lower cards for a 99. Some of these cards could be fun to try out.
If I remember correctly, I think that Turkey Stearnes card has kind of a glitchy swing. -
The Legendary Walter "Buck" Leonard, regarded by many as the greatest first baseman in baseball history!
Make sure to play Storylines: The Negro Leagues - Season 3 to earn his Negro Leagues Series 83
.Then this Friday at noon PT, use it to add his 99
to your squad! -

Satchell PaigeI have always thought that Paige would be the main Collection reward.
Behind him would probably be DihigoWill the other two also be in the collection rewards. With the twelve 99s they have announced that brings the negro league totals up to 41 cards.
-
Rube Foster has been added with the wording of "Use It"
That brings the total cards to 42 without Paige, Dihigo or Doby

Man, I need to catch up on the Spooky program and try that Killebrew mission. I keep hearing people mention it.

I'm coming to your house this weekend to help you blast 2 HRs.
The true potato is Keith Hernandez. IFKYK.

Joe Torre multiple doubles would like to have a word.

I still get confused by the Hernandez one. Thats not even in the the top 50 of toughest moments over the last few years in my opinion.

Nope! Weekend Classic.

So I just exchanged all the NLB cards; however, it seems as though some of the older ones stayed in my portfolio (and in some cases like Buck Leonard, I still have both). Bill Foster appears to have disappeared entirely.
-
Tip if you make a Negro League theme team: combine them with the Dodgers and include the Dodgers Jackie. You can get the Blake Treinen captain up to Tier 2 and Jackie gets both boosts and gains +14POW vL and vR.
Also, you can add Hank or Willie for the NL boost, but both of their teams don't have great pitcher captain boosts.
