Here we go...
74 Edgar Martinez (DH) with the Space Needle appropriately located in the background
193 Gary Sheffield rounding the bases, errr check that... enjoying the sights in the MIA
11 Bernie Williams with a flexed bat... on a FREAKING FRONT-LOADER! God, I love this stuff. Have I mentioned that yet?
87 Tony WHOA-mack... yeah, that's a Cessna in the background
22 Bobby Bonilla sans batting gloves accompanied by the Seven Mile Bridge
182 Alan Benes is literally out of this world
115 Jeff King and his epic mustache caught on the tracks
59 Tom Glavine's not out of the woods yet
Aside from the general awesomeness of this set, one of my favorite aspects can be seen when comparing the Edgar Martinez card to Glavine's card in this pack. Martinez is featured in front of a prominent Seattle landmark while Glavine looks like an 'Other' trying to defend the Dharma Initiative and its cause rather than pitching for Atlanta, a town not known for its natural landscapes. All the more reason to love this set.
Check back tomorrow for pack #3!

Atlanta not known for its natural landscapes?? I'll have you know Atlanta is one of the greenest cities in the country, and there are trees everywhere. And every damn one of those trees spits out pollen like mad 24-7 from February to November, causing our pollen count to rise to over 30,000 on a *good* day. Don't tell me about trees man, although I will agree with you that Tommy Traitor could very well be an "Other".
That's true, fine sir. I'll concede on that note. Just wait until I get around to some more of your Bravos... Hilarious.
