Tony Batista Autographed 2000 Fleer Ultra - Gold Medallion #194G Toronto Blue Jays Card

Add a parallel from Tony Batistas career-best season with this Tony Batista autographed 2000 Fleer Ultra - Gold Medallion #194G Toronto Blue Jays card. The Gold Medallion edition parallels Batistas standard Ultra #194 and is identified by the #194G designation, giving collectors a distinct version of his regular 2000 Fleer Ultra issue.

Batista joined Toronto from the Arizona Diamondbacks during the 1999 season and quickly developed into one of the Blue Jays primary power threats. In only 98 games with Toronto, he hit 26 home runs with 79 RBI, finishing the full season with 31 home runs and 100 RBI between Arizona and Toronto.

The 2000 season became the offensive high point of Batistas Major League career. He established career highs with 41 home runs and 114 RBI, scored 96 runs and earned his first American League All-Star selection. His 41 home runs placed him among the leagues leading sluggers and made him a major source of power in Torontos lineup.

Batista was also one of baseballs most recognizable hitters because of his extraordinarily wide-open batting stance. He later earned his second All-Star selection with the Baltimore Orioles in 2002 and continued to provide significant home run production throughout much of his 11-year Major League career.

Batista finished his MLB career with 1,146 hits, 221 home runs and 718 RBI. Combining Fleer Ultras photography-driven presentation with the added appeal of the Gold Medallion parallel, the 2000 Fleer Ultra #194G is an excellent addition for Toronto Blue Jays collectors, Tony Batista fans, Gold Medallion collectors, Fleer Ultra collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
