THE MOMENT

Homers in each of his first two major-league games

This is the call-up card that starts Judge’s major-league power story a season before the formal RC-marked run. Homers in his first two games made the arrival immediate, while a 1,169-card print run kept the first chapter compact. Ten recent exact raw sales produce a $175.50 median. The result is strong, but the spread between individual sales remains wide.
