JUAN SOTO Yankees 2018 Bowman Chrome Blue refractor # / 150 rookie PSA 9 MINT
This Soto rookie card comes from the 2018 Bowman Chrome set and is the very rare Blue Refractor, each one serially numbered out of only 150 cards! Soto, as a 20 year old in 2019, had an even better sophomore season than his fantastic rookie year. In 150 games/542 at bats with the Nationals, Soto batted. 282 with 153 hits, 32 doubles, 34 homers, 110 runs scored and 110 RBIs. One of his most outstanding stat continues to be his batting eye shown by his ability to draw walks (108).
Soto's walk to strikeout ratio is usually found with perennial All-Star batting champions, not a 20 year old in his second major league season. This card is graded a PSA 9 which is MINT!! , by Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA), the top grading company in the sports cards industry.
Because Beckett and PSA are the top two 3rd party grading companies in the collectibles industry. Because if you want your card to appreciate in value, the condition of the card is very important. Having the card sealed in the case & it's condition graded allows you to easily sell/trade the card online. A portion of the proceeds from this listing will be sent to the world relief organization World Help. This water well will provide clean/usable water for a community of up to 1000 people! Thanks in advance for your contribution towards this cause. One charity, World Help, drills and installs water wells that provide clean/usable water for villages of up to 1,000 people per location in Africa. You played a part in that! The other 5% will go to an orphanage call Nueva Esperanza Children's Home in Tijuana, Mexico. This orphanage cares for 30+ children and is run completely from donations from people. I have visited the orphanage 4 times over the past 10 years and it's a joy to see the children each time.
