It looks like Mark Teixeira isn't the only one getting a card with pie on it.
Reports today include Nick Swisher getting the same treatment. For those keeping score at home, his card number is #65.
And also, from the number one source in the hobby...Francisco Cervalli. Pictures are above (thanks to Field Level View). Card #422...
And finally, from Sooz of A Cardboard Problem, and the gentleman who runs Rickey Henderson Collectibles, word of a 2010 Topps Rickey Henderson SP card has surfaced. Picture of the front is above as well. Card #95.
That brings our tally to nineteen SP cards, three of which are Yankee Pie Faces. I'm not too sure if I want to get any of them, but that #422 might be of interest.
Will there be more?
Sincerely,

I went to a couple of the games that pie was tossed so i'd love to collect them.
I'm going to wager that every card in the set has a short print or photo parallel. Why Stop at 19?
Wait, so the pie face cards are SPs???
#422??
Topps is releasing short prints from series two in series one now?
Calanula!
ooohhh stale gum's gonna have a fit!!!!!!
They may as well just make the "regular" cards the hard ones to get. This is getting ridiculous.
I think the short prints are fun. I don't seek them, by any means, but if I find them, I like them.
i can see how they would be a pain for true set builders like jaybee, but if you just needed one or two for your team or player collection (unless your a yankee collector!) they are fun. im not a high end collector so these are perfect! thank you topps!
The last thing I want is a card of a Yankee getting a pie in the face, so I will say a little prayer of thanks that these are short-prints and I will never see them in my hands.
I think that might be the first time anyone has ever called me a "gentleman." Makes me sound like one of my grandparents!
