I would love for it to be Pujols since it looks like him coming down the line but im assuming its the batter. So my guesses are Gold Glove Jim Edmonds or Rookie of the Year Ohtani.
Any other guesses?
-
It shouldnt be a Cards player. They have never played in Angels stadium, IIRC. And it’s not Pujols as an Angel. No reason, and the player is a visiting player.
What AL teams wear red jerseys.
-
Rangers maybe
-
The clue is a recreation of the Opening Video of MVP Baseball 2004 w/ Pujols on the cover.

Edmonds won 2 gold gloves with the Angels. Like i said too I didn't expect it to be Pujols since he hadnt won any awards as an Angel. I didn't notice it was an away team player.
Sorry, quoted the wrong comment here

Doesn't have to be AL there is interleague play. The team is all red helmet and jersey. They just released an Angels Tori Hunter I wouldn't think they would do 2 back to back.
In the AL it is the Rangers that have an all red alternative uniform, Angels. Indians and Red Sox have had red helmets in the past. In the NL it is the Reds and Cards and the Nats
So who is left that has had a high level card yet that would fit the clues
-
The away team is hitting. So bot the angels. Could be a silver slugger Rendon, being that he played for a team team with red jerseys(Nats), and then now plays for the angels. It could also be Johnny Damon, or a Rangers player. Could be a reds player(Tony Perez if he is still in the game, or Votto). If its a cards player I can say with 100% certainty that it is not Pujols
-
IMO it also looks like a RH hitter in their HR celebration.

Please let it be Damon

Eddie Gaedel definitely!!!!

AL-Red Sox, Rangers, Indians, Angles, White Sox back in the day
NL- Cards, Nats, Phillies, Reds

It's obviously a 1981 Pete Rose Silver Slugger Awards card, and a Pete Rose program.

A. You completely missed it.
B. Would it though?
Rose's most similar comps are Molitor, Cobb, Yount, Brett and Damon: high-contact low power guys that nobody really enjoys using. Just like Jeter, the idea of a Rose card is appealing right up until the point you actually have to use it.
-
Paul Goldschmidt?

A. Doh! hangs head in shame Very well played sir. clap clap
B. No arguments from me there, but I'd like to see Charlie Hustle in the game. No chance, I know, but still. And hey, maybe they code him with some sense of urgency and when he hits the ball in the infield, he actually, you know, RUNS towards 1st instead of doing the Cabrera Shuffle....
[censored] How'd I miss that........

I’m hoping for that, but the d-backs wear black helmets with red jerseys (but I do think there might were a couple seasons of red and red). I think d-backs red is a little darker — this looks a lot more like the primary red that the rangers wear tbh. Also, it kinda looks like the runner’s number is a single digit and goldy always wore 44.
But I am 100% hoping for goldy because I’m not really excited by anyone from the reds or rangers.

I have learned to never bet against the Reds!
