# 47 Pitching Leaders... with or without a line after 19 on Burdette
CL 2... with red or yellow checklist on front and white or black circle on back
CL 3 ...player on front with # 4 visible or not
# 203.. Bressoud with or without blue streak near hat
# 208.. Osborne with a black line between name and team either touching
or not touching the box borders
