Batista joined Toronto from the Arizona Diamondbacks during the 1999 season and immediately became a major source of power. In just 98 games with the Blue Jays, 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 ranked among the top totals in the league and made him one of the primary power threats in Torontos lineup.

Batista was also one of baseballs most recognizable hitters because of his extraordinarily wide-open batting stance. He later earned a second All-Star selection with the Baltimore Orioles in 2002 and remained a significant home run threat 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 the familiar flagship Topps design with the distinctive chromium treatment, the 2000 Topps Chrome #439 is an excellent addition for Toronto Blue Jays collectors, Tony Batista fans, Topps Chrome collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
