2019 Topps Now -- #294 & #300 -- Last Night's Comeback and Belli's 20th


Here is a look at the two newest 2019 Topps Now cards for the Dodgers. Above is this afternoons offering featuring their glorious walk-off victory over the Mets and their hapless reliever Edwin Diaz. Go here to check it out and order. Per the writing on the reverse:
Facing a three-run deficit and one of the top closers in MLB, the Los Angeles Dodgers orchestrated an epic comeback. Joc Pederson came to the plate and hit a solo home run to narrow the gap, and then Max Muncy came to the plate and added a solo shot of his own. Justin Turner and Cody Bellinger contributed back-to-back doubles to tie the game, 8-8, and then the Dodgers loaded the bases with nobody out. Alex Verdugo hit a deep fly ball to left field to drive in the winning run in walk-off fashion.
Then yesterday Cody Bellinger received a card -- now sold out with a 388 print run -- that celebrated his 20th home run on Tuesday.

Below is what's written on the reverse:
Cody Bellinger's incredible 2019 season continued, as he became the first Los Angeles Dodgers plater since Gil Hodges in 1951 to reach 20 home runs in the team's first 55 games. Bellinger leads the League in runs, hits, runs batter in, while carrying a dominant .382 batting average.
