That's awesome! I have the 2005 Futures game. Best player was Justin Verlander (who had made his MLB debut the week before).

• Bert Blyleven rookie start (12th career start)
• HOF Tony Oliva HR (149th of his career)

It's amazing how many never make it at all, and how few become stars. (Obviously there's a lot of space in between those two)

David Ortiz final career home run. I have final career HR's for other players (most natably Carl Yastrzemski), but no one in the 500 HR club.

Thank you! Lineup cards are a primary focus of my collection (as this thread can attest to lol). It is rare to be able to find a milestone like this one - the final homerun of a member of the 500 HR club.
