2009 Topps 'Tales of the Game' David Ortiz 'Yankees Dig Up Ortiz's Jersey' Card

This is a 2009 Topps 'Tales of the Game' secondary insert baseball card (Card #TG6). The card measures approximately 2.5 by 3.5 inches and is primarily constructed of cardstock with a glossy finish. The imagery depicts a soil-stained, tattered white jersey featuring the number '34' and the name 'ORTIZ' in red, being held up after being excavated. This specific card commemorates the 2008 event where a construction worker buried a David Ortiz jersey in the concrete of the new Yankee Stadium, which was later dug up. The Topps logo is visible in the upper right, and the series title 'TALES OF THE GAME' is featured in a red scroll at the top left. The bottom white banner contains the text 'Yankees Dig Up Ortiz's Jersey'. The card shows signs of surface wear and potential edge softenting consistent with age and handling, though it is currently stored within a plastic protective sleeve. The overall aesthetic is distressed by design to reflect the 'buried' nature of the story, featuring sandy and muddy color tones across the background. Production marks and licensing information would be located on the reverse side. It serves as a narrative piece of modern sports memorabilia documenting a famous rivalry folklore moment.
