Default A Swing and a Miss...

Now stepping up to the plate...PSA.

Here's the pitch...

Now the submitter throws a low-speed fastball right over the middle of the plate...

...and a big swing and a miss!!!


The submitter underhands the ball to PSA...

...and another swing and a miss!!!!!!! Yer out!!!!!!!!!

Wow, PSA really dropped the ball (pun intended) with these common cards, elevating them to the esteemed status of tough variations. I don't know what's worse, that PSA put "FIRST NAME IN WHITE" on these three cards when even my Aunt Mildred with her cataracts and glaucoma can see the names are printed in yellow, or the fact that the ebay seller listing each of these cards doesn't have a single word in any of his descriptions alerting potential buyers to the blatant mistakes on the labels. (I know, some whiner is going to say, "Waaah!! Waaaah!! Why don't you ask the seller about it instead of complaining on a message board???," so I'll say this. I already sent him a message, doofus, and am awaiting his reply. )

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
