Discovery Plaza

March 23, 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.

Past winner of Calder and Lady Byng trophies as top rookie and for clean, effective play. Camille is smallest player in NHL but also one of smartest. NHL total of 227 goals in ten years attests to that. Camille's weight ranges from 145 to 150 pounds. Sometimes called "Camille the Eel" because he's so hard to nail with clean body check.

Through his first 50 games of 2008, Berkman batted a robust .385 with 16 home runs, 45 RBI and 52 runs scored. He banged out four hits, had four RBI and scored the winning run in the 12th inning against Milwaukee on 5/4.

After breaking in with Bruins at 19 from junior hockey in West, this robust forward was farmed out to Kingston, Ont., last year. Dick tips beam at better than 200 pounds and uses weight to good advantage, bulling his way down right wing. He's an excellent prospect with good chance of making grade.

The story was that Connie could speak no English when he first joined the Senators. However, his antics on the field pepped up the team, as did his pitching. The little Cuban got into 22 games for the 1953 Senators, winning 8 and losing 7. He played college ball, then joined the pro game with Havana in 1947, winning 25 and losing only 6 that year. Earned run average, 1.66. In 1949 with Havana w...

Jim has traveled a lot since he entered organized baseball in 1943. However, he pitched well for a weak hitting team in 1952, so the indications are that he can settle down for a stay in Boston. He walked 90 batters and struck out 104. His earned run average was 4.23. He pitched for Boston in 1945, part of 1946, for Philadelphia briefly in 1949 and then again for Boston in 1951.

Grant was signed as a free agent by Ottawa in the 1999-2000 season, Grant's first goal with Ottawa was his first of the season, and it came with 1:01 remaining to give the Senators a 3-2 win over the Rangers.

Hampered by a serious knee injury last year, Bernie will be battling to win back his No. 1 role at second base this season. Bernie has one of the quickest pair of hands in the league and is acknowledged to be one of the best double-play men in the majors. In high school, Bernie was an All-American in basketball. Bernie was Purdue's No. 1 quarterback in college.

Muhsin, with more than 50 catches in each of the past five years, is one of only three players remaining from Carolina's 1996 team that went to the NFC title game. He is a superior blocker for a receiver, and he has emerged as a team leader.

Crawford finished tied for fourth in the NHL in wins and led the League in shutouts in 2015-16. He surpassed Tony Esposito's franchise postseason record for victories when Chicago defeated St. Louis in Game 2 of a Central Division Semifinal.

A strong, speedy defensive back, Rickie is an aggressive and hard-hitting player. In ad- dition to his defensive play, Rickie led the Skins in punt and kick-off returns last sea- son. Thus he is an offensive and defensive threat! Rickie played four offensive positions in college.

His father, Edward, pitched in Bosox chain in 1940's & 1950's. Had 12-1 record in 2 years at University of Massachusetts.

Charlie will be fighting for a first string catching job with the Braves this season after seeing only limited action in '54. A sure-handed and versatile fielder, he played 3rd Base as well as handling the "big mitt" while in the Minors. Starting at the Hot Corner with Toronto in '51, Charlie hit .283 in 60 games and .260 the following year when he switched to Catching.

Fred Sington gained national fame by being selected as an All-American football player from the University of Alabama. He started his major-league baseball career with the Washington Senators, who obtained him from Chattanooga, where he won the Southern Association batting crown with a batting average of .384. He was purchased by the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1938 and in 17 games with the Dodgers, hi...

Robles was among five players in 2019 (and the youngest since Mike Trout in '13) to record at least 15 homers, 30 doubles and 25 stolen bases. Victor was at his best in August, batting .290 with a .374 OBP to help Washington go 19-7 that month.

Adept at drawing walks and bypassing subpar pitches out of the zone, Adael finds ways to get on base, where he is more than capable of using his speed to create opportunities. On June 9, 2024, in his first big-league game with Colorado, the switch-hitting Amador provided sneak previews of his best tools, rapping a hit and swiping a bag at St. Louis.

The powerfully built young outfielder appears to be the Mets' star slugger for years to come In his first year with the Mets, Ron led the club in home runs. There isn't a harder worker on the team than this likeable young man. At all times, Ron is striving for perfection. With a season of major league experience under his belt, Ron looks like one of the game's top sluggers. Watch this fence bus...

One of four Mets farmhands to steal 40+ bases in 2024, Luisangel shined as a September callup. He produced multiple hits in three of his first four starts, which helped earn him a Postseason roster spot.

The 2006 Topps Allen & Ginter card of Clint Barmes runs down his career to date; he has banged out 129 hits, including 24 doubles and 12 long balls. Unsurprisingly, he has also posted a batting average of .289.

Sandy was on his way to having a sensational season in 1962, when an ailment on his pitching hand hampered him. The fireballer led the N.L. in ERA. Sandy pitched a no-hitter vs. the Mets last year.

Portland picked Murray in the first round of the 2023 draft, and he was quick to prove worthy of the slot. He scored in double figures 18 times in 2023-24 and cranked out a season-high 21 points against the Clippers on March 22. He added seven boards, three steals and two dimes while he was at it.

Last season, Tony won 31 games for the Black Hawks. He has an extra-quick catching hand and often plays out of a crouch. Tony played college hockey at Michigan Tech and set the modern NHL record with 15 shutouts in 1969-70. He and brother Phil of Boston may become the most famous "brother act" in hockey history. Tony studies each opposing player carefully.

Al, one of the regulars in All-Star competition, is one of baseball's greats. He is just nearing his peak years. Al won the A.L. batting title in 1955.

Minor stars round out the 1911 Turkey Red baseball card set. Roughly the same number of each Turkey Red subject was printed; most early 20th century collectors preserved stars rather than commons.

Upon his graduation from Holy Cross College, in 1930, Gene Desautels joined the Detroit Tigers and caught in 42 games that year. He was farmed out to the Columbus team of the American Association, catching for them in 1931. The following year, Desautels was recalled by the Detroit Tigers and was understudy to Ray Heyworth during 1932 and 1933. In 1934 he was the catcher for the Toledo Club, Hol...

Tampa Bay hitting coach Chad Mottola has seen a lot over his 30-plus years in the game. Yet Sept. 30, 2023, was a new one. Following an explosive batting-practice round in Toronto, Caminero received a standing ovation. "[He's] just that electric," Mottola said. "I don't know if I've seen somebody hit the ball consistently as hard as he does."
