6 Chipper Jones
Seven Mystery Rookie Redemption cards (sequentially-numbered #RR1-#RR7) were randomly inserted into SPx packs.  Over the course of the 2008 season, Upper Deck would reveal the player each card was good for.  Collectors had until June 30th, 2010 to redeem their cards.  Since the fulfilled cards were sequentially-numbered as part of the SPx base set, they are eligible for the "RC" tag.


7 John Smoltz
The three biggest rookie cards in the SPx set (Evan Longoria, Max Scherzer, and Clayton Kershaw) all packed out as Mystery Rookie Redemptions -- something to be aware of if you're in the market for unopened wax.

108 Joey Votto
This 100-card set, similar to a Cal Ripken, Jr. insert in [[2007 SPx#Iron Man|the previous year's product,]] celebrates the career of Ken Griffey, Jr. Since all 100 cards are of Griffey, displaying the full checklist would be repetitive. Each card is serial-numbered to 725 copies.

111 Josh Newman
Again, just like [[2007 SPx#Green|last year's Cal Ripken set,]] a parallel featuring a box score from a game Griffey played in is also available. Each card is labelled a "1 of 1," which, technically, is true.  Unlike the Ripken set from last year, the exact number of games being commemorated is unknown.  It should be noted that, coming into the 2008 season, Griffey had played 2760 games.

114 Harvey Garcia
Similar to the Griffey and Ripken sets, is a 100-card tribute to Babe Ruth.  Unlike the Griffey and Ripken sets, Upper Deck didn't bother with a base set and only included the "1 of 1" Boxscore cards.  Again, there are multiple ones-of-one for each card, and the exact number of games being commemorated was not revealed by Upper Deck.  However, Ruth played in 2504 career games.

Mystery Rookie Redemptions

Seven Mystery Rookie Redemption cards (sequentially-numbered #RR1-#RR7) were randomly inserted into SPx packs. Over the course of the 2008 season, Upper Deck would reveal the player each card was good for. Collectors had until June 30th, 2010 to redeem their cards. Since the fulfilled cards were sequentially-numbered as part of the SPx base set, they are eligible for the "RC" tag.

The three biggest rookie cards in the SPx set (Evan Longoria, Max Scherzer, and Clayton Kershaw) all packed out as Mystery Rookie Redemptions -- something to be aware of if you're in the market for unopened wax.

The first 45 cards in the Rookie Signatures (cards #101-#145) are available in a Silver parallel. One Silver card was inserted into each sealed Hobby box as a box topper.

Inserts

Ken Griffey, Jr. American Hero

This 100-card set, similar to a Cal Ripken, Jr. insert in the previous year's product, celebrates the career of Ken Griffey, Jr. Since all 100 cards are of Griffey, displaying the full checklist would be repetitive. Each card is serial-numbered to 725 copies.

Boxscore

Ken-Griffey-Jr.jpg?id=ed493175-b524-47d4-938a-2581919a9c98&size=original&side=front&.jpg Ken-Griffey-Jr.jpg?id=ed493175-b524-47d4-938a-2581919a9c98&size=original&side=back&.jpg

Again, just like last year's Cal Ripken set, a parallel featuring a box score from a game Griffey played in is also available. Each card is labelled a "1 of 1," which, technically, is true. Unlike the Ripken set from last year, the exact number of games being commemorated is unknown. It should be noted that, coming into the 2008 season, Griffey had played 2760 games.

Babe Ruth American Legend Boxscore

Similar to the Griffey and Ripken sets, is a 100-card tribute to Babe Ruth. Unlike the Griffey and Ripken sets, Upper Deck didn't bother with a base set and only included the "1 of 1" Boxscore cards. Again, there are multiple ones-of-one for each card, and the exact number of games being commemorated was not revealed by Upper Deck. However, Ruth played in 2504 career games.

All 100 cards in the American Hero insert (see above) are also available in a Memorabilia and Signature parallel. The Memorabilia card is serial-numbered to 25 copies, and each Signature is numbered to three.
