June monthly awards. The Ron Guidry moment. I’m old enough to remember Guidry in his prime. This card by SDS isn’t the Guidry I remember. He would have struck all 15 of the A’s in that moment. That’s the Guidry I remember.
His Awards card in 17 was great, but it seems like since then they've nerfed Guidry's cards.

Woo boy! July Topps now. Week 1.
Dane Myers can’t hit. Joey Wendle can’t run.
A deadly combination.
-
Sure enough! Put it here. And magic happens.
Perfect/perfect line drive to RF gap. Even wendle can score on that.
Woo hoo.

Ok, this is very funny. I am cleaning up some Topps Now Moments I haven’t done from April (I know, I’m way behind). I am trying the Bryce Turang Moment. (Remember that one?)
Anyway, on my 5th try. So far, I’m 4-4 with 2 doubles and 2 triples and 12 rbi. Just not a homer!
Brutal.
-
I am not a moments fan at all, but you gotta love the week one July Topps now.
They are all, but one, literally a moment.
Gotta give SDS credit for this one.
I actually enjoyed them.

Joey votto moment in July Topps now week 2.
Doesn’t help that the pitcher will not throw anything hard nor above the knees.
I am 8-10 with votto. All line drive singles.
-
Finally! I was 12-15 with him. Pitcher threw one inside belt high.
It barely cleared the fence. Barely.
Whew

Anthony Santander July Topps now moment.
I’m 6-10 with him with 2 doubles and two triples.
One of the outs was a perfect/perfect that was caught at the wall
IMO, perfect/perfect in moments should be programmed to satisfy the moment. (Yeah, I’m that guy….).
-
And on cue, after I post….
Boom!! No doubter to right center.
I love this thread.

Yup, it was him and Paredes last night out of the new moments, could get a ball in the air (I blame the pitching) finally got both done when i had enough patience to let the pitcher hang one. I think Santandar's just cleared the wall

I was expecting the JD Davis moment to give me fits. But, Jansen threw one high and outside and he whacked it to LF.
One at bat. I was shocked.

In 2021 there was a Miggy program to commemorate is 500th HR I believe. There was one moment I spent at least an hour on which made me sad for my lack of social life hahaha. I posted a mini vent session on this forum and got the advice to switch to directional and hold up while swinging with power. I have never looked back and whenever I got stuck on anything, posting seemed to be the gateway to freedom haha. Glad this thread works for others.

Yeah Paredes was tough. He has tons of power but I was always late. Finally hit one out to RF lol

This might be my favorite post on here.

This JD Davis moment is a vision of Hell that Dante only wished he had the talent to describe.

I’ve read The Inferno and what you’ve just said while surpassing impossibility might be the greatest description of something truly awful that I’ve ever read.
Are you saying this moment should’ve come with the warning sign of all warning signs, “Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here” hahaha

Can't take credit for that description. In the television show Coach, there was an episode where they go on a fishing trip, only Hayden let Luther take charge for the entire. It's a disaster, and it's the first one they've invited Howard on. Hayden complains to Luther about how ill prepared Luther was, and Howard says he doesn't want to hear about all the great trips in the past because he's only been on this one, and all he's seen is "A vision of Hell that Dante only wished he had the talent to describe." Since that episode aired, I've been using that to describe especially bad things.
