On the back of 2019 Heritage #NT10, there is so much wrong you should look for yourself. First Diego Segui made his debut in 1962, not 1970 or even 1969.   And he did not get base hit on April 20, 1970.   And on April 20 1969,  he did not even play.   Heck, Segui wasn't even with the Royals eiher of those years.    So I am at a loss as to what Topps is trying to say here.   Unless I am misreading the narrative or it's time to put me into a home.

From what I gather after reading it, is that they were just mentioning somthing else interesting that happened on the same Month and Day.  Not really related to the "Now" event other than that.  A bit confusing of a choice on this one.  

Side note, pretty cool seeing an insert of a fairly obscure player like Taylor Clarke as a Dbacks fan.  

The card you're referring to:

It's unclear, but Segui did appear in a game on 4/20/1970 for the A's versus the Royals. However, he pitched 1 1/3 innings and took the loss. The first batter he faced did not walk.

This is a complete bungle. You're still safe from being involuntarily moved.

Again, the "Then" thing did not happen. At least not on April 20 1970..      Looks like the Topps' editors like to enjoy the "long" lunch.   Now, is the UER?    Or a RSU?    (really screwed up)

This reminded me of another one I noticed when I pulled the card.  This time it was Panini so at least Topps can say it isn't exclusive to them haha.

The back of this card says Shaq led the Miami Heat to an NBA title in 2011.
