Kinda breaking the rules with this one, but it's one of the things that I love about the early 90's Topps sets, cause without some of the exceptional photos there really isn't much left to love about them😄. Card 139 Gary Gaetti, sliding into Junior Ortiz, and card 199 Junior Ortiz waiting on the approaching throw to tag out the sliding Gary Gaetti. Obviously taking in the same sequence. The only thing that would make it better, is if they were back to back in the set.

Absolutely. Another sequence like that I noticed a long time ago was Roberto Alomar's 1994 Topps card. He's turning a double play against Cleveland as his brother Sandy is sliding in trying to break it up. This is also the picture on Robby's 1994 Fleer card, or at least from the same play.

Wow! Great catch on that especially because it is from 2 different teams cards. The only case I know of this is 1974 Topps football where #378 Bob Hoskins is about to tackle the Redskins Charlie Harraway who is spinning away. A fraction of a second later where on card #165 Harraway has spun away and Cedric Hardman is joining Hoskins in an attempt to bring Harraway down. There were only a handfull of action cards in that set and Hoskins and Hardman were both on 49er cards which made that sequence mush easier to spot than yours.

I always assumed they were pretty close, but as I was going through my doubles yesterday and they were both in the 100's I was like wait a second. So being the guy that I am, after seeing this decided to head over to retrosheet.org to see if I could find the box score and sure enough.

Top of the 4th, Gaetti, out at home

An absolute BEAST!!! Have you seen his bench press video? He had fun doing what he did to other teams too... I heard he used to make the Choo-Choo!! sound sometimes when he lined up and Emmitt was coming behind him. Like, ya just TRY and stop this!

i'm not a Cowboys fan but those 90s Cowboys teams were the best I ever saw. I'd pick them over any other dynastic team that I ever watched. That O-line was the greatest in history which is saying something when you consider the 60s Packers and 70s Raiders teams each of which had 3 HOFers on them. And a case can be made that Larry Allen was the greatest offensive lineman ever.
