Discovery Plaza

March 14, 2026

Discovery Plaza is the 1000 square foot forecourt leading to the Card Cyber Museum - a daily exhibition of 60 sports cards waiting to be discovered beneath your feet! Inspired by the forecourt of the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, where celebrities leave their handprints in concrete, our Plaza features digital frames embedded in the ground - beneath bulletproof glass. Each day brings a new rotation of cards showcasing the incredible sets found within the museum. Click any colored text square to flip it and reveal the card front, or click any card image to view full details.

Originally inspired by Piet Mondrian's neoplasticism style with bold primary colors, Discovery Plaza invites you to uncover the stories behind the cards.

In this world of bigness, the Derek's have shown us that a couple can get to the top on their own. Here's to Bo... actress, international beauty, film producer, businesswoman and wife.

When Schröder snatches an outlet and turns upcourt, his teammates know they have to hotfoot it in order to keep up with the speedy guard. Their effort is usually rewarded, though. Leading the charge in his debut for the Nets on Feb. 10, 2024, he handed out a dozen assists in a win over the Spurs.

Phil led the Calif. League and then the Texas League in batting in '60 and '61. He has played at 3 infield positions as well as in the outfield.

After a dismal season with Brooklyn the year before, "Gene" Moore was traded early in 1940 to the Boston Bees. He proved that he was far from through as a major league outfielder. With Boston, a team he played with before joining the Dodgers, he batted close to the .300 mark and batted in 39 runs in 113 games, while collecting the same number of hits. With an average of .987, Moore was also clo...

Bill Swift has been one of the mainstays of the Pittsburgh Pirates pitching staff since joining them in 1932. Swift made his professional debut with Muskogee in 1928. He was purchased by Pittsburgh in 1931 from Kansas City and each year has appeared in more than 35 games per season, managing to win more games than he lost every season but one. The best year for Swift was 1935 when he won 15 gam...

The second year was much better than the first for Corliss. He fit into the Kings' scheme and improved his numbers in every major category.

Jack was the leading Redskin pass receiver last season. At college he was an All-American in addition to winning baseball and golf honors. Jack's clever faking and speed makes him a hard man to keep up with and helped him post the 2nd highest Average Gain in the League in '55.

CROOK DEFEATS POLE FOR BOXING GOLD MEDAL - Rome, Sep. 5, 1960 - Eddie Crook today won the Olympic middleweight boxing gold medal with a majority decision over Poland's Tadeusz Walasek, after knocking out his first three opponents. Crook almost made the 1956 Olympic team but lost in the finals of the trials. Since then he has won two Golden Gloves and one AAU championship.

Can he get up? Brown, the 1991 SLAM-DUNK CHAMP, was called for goal tending FOUR TIMES last season - a badge of honor for a 6-1 guard.

Otto Knabe, manager of the Baltimore Federal League team, was born in Carrick, Pa., June 12, 1884. He gained his first baseball experience with various clubs in the vicinity of Pittsburgh, and in 1905 he joined the Colorado Springs, Colo., club.. He played several games with Pittsburgh in the fall of 1905, but was later sold to Toledo. He was drafted by the Philadelphia Nationals in 1907, and r...

Pete narrowly missed reaching the 200 hit plateau for 6th time in career last season. Still he led both leagues in Hits and continued to be one of the finest leadoff men. Pete attended the same high school as Tigers' Ed Brinkman!

He calls himself "Joxer the Mighty," a would-be warrior. But Joxer's greatest strength comes from his heart. Dressed in makeshift battle gear that is just a little comical, Joxer throws himself into dangerous situations with an impulsiveness that rivals Gabrielle's. He first appeared as a potential soldier for Callisto, but she knew better. Impressed by Xena, smitten with Gabrielle, Joxer frequ...

Owen was part of the return the Guardians received from the Padres for trading Mike Clevinger there in 2020. In May 2021, Cleveland called him up, after he climbed into their top 20 prospects. He got off to a red-hot start at Triple-A Columbus, hitting .406 with a 1.067 OPS in his first 16 games. His first hit was an infield single. Stole his first MLB base vs. Twins - 8-18-21.

Ted joined the Indians in August of '52 after 8 1?2 seasons in the National League. He's been in pro ball since '38 and was brought up to the Cards after turning in records of 20-10 at Houston in '41 and 16-8 for Columbus in '43. Ted was 17-4 to lead the NL in his rookie season ('44). The great reliever appeared in 77 games for the Cards in '46 and '47 winning 12 and losing 0. He turned in a 2....

After a fine rookie year, Leo is spending this season in the Service. He had an 8-4 record at Louisville, when the Red Sox brought him up in June of '51. Leo started in organized ball in 1948 and with Birmingham in 1950 he won 18 games, struck out 156 and was chosen on the Southern Association All-Star Team. In the winter, he used to run a service station.

Saku, a fast skater, missed 28 games with injuries in 2000-01, but still tied for the team lead in assists and points. He won a bronze medal with Finland at the 1998 Olympics.

Mick's coaches call him their best offensive lineman. He signed as a Free Agent in '62 after the '62 draft and won a regular spot in the 2nd pre-season '62 game.

Acquired by the Suns from New Orleans during the 1978-79 season, Leonard saw action in 26 games at Phoenix and was credited with 225 Rebounds, 17 Steals and 12 Blocked Shots. At New Orleans in 1977-78 he played in all 82 games while leading the entire NBA with 3638 Minutes.

The veteran bullpen specialist was obtained from the Tigers where he was one of their most consistent firemen for several years. Last season, Fred came up with arm miseries and did very little pitching. Healthy again, he'll be a shot in the arm for Houston in '69. Fred fired a no-hitter in his first start in the Sally League.

Roy is one of baseball's finest catchers. A hand injury which necessitated an operation hampered Roy greatly in 1954, so that his .207 batting average for 111 games is not a fair indication of his abilities with a bat. The preceding year saw him hit a fine .312, and lead the league in runs batted in with 142. He was named the National League's Most Valuable Player in 1953. He also received the ...

In trading for Noah, the Phillies hoped to catch lightning in a bottle - literally. He averaged better than 98 mph with his fastball and north of 90 with his change-up in his five seasons prior to 2020 elbow surgery.

When John was acquired as a rookie from the Jets, Boston scribes tagged the quarterback a "can't miss prospect." The former All-American will be ready to inherit a role from vet Parilli in the future.

"Successful" can be the word for Randy's three-game rookie series for Cougars in June, 1971. He averaged 25 points per game with 11.3 rebounds, a 46% field goal percentage & 17 of 18 free throws made. Averaged 17.4, 21.5 & 20.4 in 3 seasons at Duke Univ. with 1,067 rebounds. Randy was the tallest player in Duke basketball history.

Austin shrugged off a difficult start to 2023 to establish a career high for innings, crediting some subtle mechanical tweaks and better fastball command for his improvement. Beginning on June 25 against the Angels, the southpaw won four consecutive starts. That was part of a seven-outing streak in which he allowed no more than one walk in any of them.

Four full seasons in his career, Gio has yet to post an ERA above 3.36 -something only two other pitchers (Clayton Kershaw and Cliff Lee) have managed in that time frame. The Washington Nationals have won more than two-thirds of his starts for him.

Brian has earned everything that has come his way in the NFL. Undrafted out of college, this former Walter Payton National Player of the Year award winner first made his mark with Barcelona in NFL Europe. He finished third in that league in receptions in 1999 and was named Offensive Player of the Week after catching seven passes for 205 yards and three TDs against Amsterdam. It was there that F...
