Here's one. They airbrushed away the KC logo on the front dome of the helmet, but didn't remove the reflection of the logo on the bill of the helmet.

DC -- Hah, I didn't know that. I'll have to go see if I have it. It's a pretty high number. Maybe Topps just waited and waited to see if they could ever snap the "real" Rodriguez and then finally just said,
Ah hell, shoot the batboy!"
