Featuring Todd Pratt with the Philadelphia Phillies, this Todd Pratt autographed 2004 Topps First Edition #618 Philadelphia Phillies card is the First Edition parallel of his standard 2004 Topps issue. The First Edition version is distinguished by the 1st Edition foil stamp on the card front, giving collectors a separate parallel from the regular Topps release.
Pratt made his Major League debut with the Philadelphia Phillies in 1992 and appeared in 33 games for the memorable 1993 National League championship club. Serving as a backup to Darren Daulton, he also saw postseason action during both the NLCS against Atlanta and the World Series against Toronto.
After returning to the Major Leagues with the New York Mets in 1997, Pratt developed into a valuable reserve catcher. His signature postseason moment came in Game 4 of the 1999 NLDS against Arizona, when he launched a 10th-inning home run that gave New York a 4-3 victory and clinched the series.
Pratt returned to Philadelphia during the 2001 season and remained with the Phillies through 2005. Working primarily behind Mike Lieberthal, he provided the club with an experienced backup catcher and right-handed bat while appearing in 63 games during the 2003 season.
Over a 14-season Major League career, Pratt appeared in 662 games with the Phillies, Mets, Braves and Cubs. With its distinctive First Edition designation, the 2004 Topps First Edition #618 is an appealing alternative to Pratt's standard Topps card for Philadelphia Phillies collectors, Todd Pratt fans, parallel collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
