1998 Topps Baseball Series 1 Pack

1998 Topps is a 503-card set distributed in two separate series: 282 cards in first series and 221 cards in second series. Card number 7 was permanently retired in 1996 to honor Mickey Mantle, so the set is sequentially-numbered to card #504.

Series Two contains Season Highlights (474-478), Interleague (479-483), Prospects (484-495/498-501) and Checklists (502-503).

This set also features Topps long-awaited first Alex Rodriguez card (#504). The superstar shortstop was left out of all Topps sets for the first four years of his career due to a problem between Topps and Rodriguez's agent Scott Boras.

Randy Myers, who led the AL in saves and was an All-Star in 1997, doesn't have any 1998 Topps cards. Future Hall of Famer Rickey Henderson also does not appear in the base set; however, he is in the "Hall Bound" insert.

Finally, as part of an agreement with the Baseball Hall of Fame, Topps produced commemorative admission tickets featuring Roberto Clemente memorabilia from the Hall in the form of a Topps card. These were the standard admission tickets for the shrine, and were also included one per case in 1998 Topps Series Two baseball.
