“Jay Bruce completed an amazing debut last week with a home run and RBI single to help his team beat the Braves,” said Steven Judd, Upper Deck’s Baseball product manager. “He seems to be learning lessons from a great role model in Ken Griffey Jr. who has said Bruce reminds him of himself twenty years ago. We are excited to provide collectors with a player of this caliber who has so much upside and potential.”
