Little known fact = Abbaticchio was the first Italian born MLB player AND professional football player!! And, by collecting both the Brown and Blue sleeve versions, I am able to obtain a lot of different backs. I'll move on from Abbaticchio eventually though! Also, for what it's worth, my mom's maiden name is Zappitelli.....see any Italian in that name?

Abbaticchio to Thayer to Zappitelli - lethal double play combo!
