Repack Haiku #382 (Queen City Kings)

Total home runs hit
By Puig and Dietrich less than
Total by Suarez 
 
2019 Topps Update #US71 Queen City Kings (VC)
 
An odd choice for a card if you ask me. Dietrich hit a career high 19 home runs in 2019. Puig hit 22 that year for Cincinati, and was actually traded to Cleveland at the trade deadline. The real King of Queen City that year was Eugenio Suarez, who placed second in the N.L. with 49 home runs - more than both of these teammates combined!

  1. I imagine Puig was the key to that card, Topps figured maybe he still had a little star power left.
