Gint-a-Cuffs Packs 11 and 12: In Which Infield Hits Trump the Long Ball

This edition is in honor of Ichiro, the infield hit maven and the first card pulled from this set of 2 packs. Other speedsters also joined him in his pack (Ellsbury, Gardner). The second pack has a different take on speed...namely, how fast can a major league career get off track? Whether by injury or poor performance nearly all of these players, have not been graced by the hand of major league success.
