1994 Score Rookie/Traded
Contents
Description
After a one year hiatus, Pinnacle Brands released 1994 Score Rookie/Traded Baseball in October 1994. The set consists of 165 cards with 80 cards of traded players, 83 of rookies, and two checklists. This is one of the few late-season 1994 sets released without a "true" Alex Rodriguez rookie card -- although it has one of A-Rod's scarcest rookie year cards. The only notable rookies are of Chan Ho Park and Jose Lima (see below).
Unlike traditional "traded sets," the design of '94SR/T was radically different than of 1994 Score, with bold red borders and separate designs for the rookies and traded players.
Unfortunately, '94SR/T suffered from a lack of rookies, a horrible design, and most importantly, bad timing. The product went live in October 1994 -- around the time of the canceled World Series.
The Jose Lima SP and the A-Rod Redemption
Midway through '94SR/T's production run a press plate needed to be replaced. Unfortunately, Pinnacle's computer database accidentally deleted Jose Lima's card, thereby making Lima's card a short-print. Rather than leave a hole in the middle of the plate, Pinnacle filled it by double-printing John Mabry's card. Towards the end of the production run, the plate broke again. This time, rather than fill Jose Lima's space with John Mabry, Pinnacle filled it with a redemption good for a card of the first player drafted in 1994 to make his Major League debut.
Unfortunately for Pinnacle Brands, then came the 1994 Baseball Player's Strike, and the cancellation of the remainder of the 1994 season. Pinnacle later announced that the "September Call-Up" card would be redemmed for a card of Alex Rodriguez, the first player selected in the 1993 Major League Draft.
