The Red Sox season is officially over, and fans can blame the man featured on this 2007 Topps card. It is Jon Papelbon’s rookie card, and has some decent value to it — not quite as much after yesterday.
Papelbon had not allowed a single run in his career in the postseason prior to yesterday’s game. He entered the ninth with a two-run lead, but Bobby Abreu and Vladimir Guerrero came up with the big blows to hand Papelbon his first postseason loss.
