Description

2004 Sweet Spot Classic is a 159-card set released by Upper Deck exclusively to Hobby outlets in February 2004. The last 69 cards in the base set make up the "Famous Firsts" subset, with each card serial-numbered to the year of the player's respective accomplishment. Cards #143 and #148 do not exist as Roger Clemens, who briefly retired after the 2003 season, came out of retirement.

Each 12-pack Hobby box will yield four Famous Firsts cards, four manufactured patches, and either a game-used card or a Sweet Spot Signature card.

Distribution

12 packs per box, four cards per pack. Eight boxes per case. Hobby only.
