Add a classic flagship Topps issue to your Yankees autograph collection with this Chris Hammond autographed 2004 Topps #22 New York Yankees card. The card features Hammond in pitching action with New York and represents his lone season in pinstripes, despite being issued after he had moved on to the Oakland Athletics. Hammond is card #22 in the 2004 Topps set.
Hammond joined the Yankees for the 2003 season following his remarkable comeback with the Atlanta Braves. The veteran left-hander proved to be a dependable member of New Yorks bullpen, appearing in 62 games and finishing 3-2 with a 2.86 ERA and one save across 63 innings. He helped the Yankees capture the American League pennant and advance to the 2003 World Series.
Following the season, New York traded Hammond and cash to the Oakland Athletics on December 18, 2003, in exchange for Eduardo Sierra and minor-league infielder J.T. Stotts. As a result, this 2004 Topps card serves as one of Hammonds final mainstream issues depicting him as a Yankee.
The 2004 Topps #22 is an excellent addition for New York Yankees collectors, flagship Topps set collectors, Chris Hammond fans or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
