How many lineup cards per game in MLB?

Mike:

I certainly hope that you're able to get that lineup card from the Jays...It's a very cool item and I know it will make a great addition to your Rangers collection...

Personally, I love both the Dugout and handheld lineup cards and have quite a few in my collection...

Here are just a couple of my favorite.....

Orioles dugout lineup card from Opening Day 2001, which was Cal Ripken Jr.'s last one:



In 2015, the Orioles celebrated the 20th Anniversary of Cal breaking Lou Gehrig's Consecutive Game Streak (Cal threw out the first pitch)



My favorite is the Homeplate Umpire's copy of the lineup cards from the May 30th 1982 game from the Orioles & Blue Jays which happened to be the first game of Cal's consecutive game streak:

That is remarkable! All the more so because while everyone knew to save the record breaking lineup card, there was no reason for quite a few years to assume any significance to the first game as it took years of playing every day for the streak to begin to matter.

I have the lineup card (carbon copy) from the game that broke Steve Garvey's consecutive game streak. I believe that is still the NL streak. Kind of interesting for the fact he is not in the lineup...
