Who is Ryan Braun?? '07 Topps #262

[t.rooster]

Hi. I have a 2007 Topps #262 Ryan Braun RC. But, this is not the Ryan Braun featured as a rookie on 2008 cards that I have. The '07 Braun is in the uniform of the KC Royals and a pitcher, not as the Brewers third sacker. Are there indeed two different Ryan Brauns?

Yes

Yes there are. Here are their player profiles:
Superstar Ryan Braun of the Brewers:

Ryan Braun of KC and now CHW:

To make life even more confusing, UD (I believe) had a habit of placing one Braun's autos on the other's card for awhile.

This is on topic but kind of different...I heard the Red Barons signed Jeff D'Amico years ago and I was so excited since I had tons of cards I wanted to get signed by him...when I met him I was like oh you look different and he said well thats not me...I then went home and found the other Jeff D'Amico and brought it the next day to the game and he signed that one.

Just kind of goes to show that there are many players out there with the same name...so you always need to be careful I guess lol
