Card #12 - Carlos Quentin All-StarThe last thing that many could have predicted was Carlos Quentin earning his first All-Star appearance in 2008. With his breakout season in 2008, Carlos was hard to ignore.
Carlos enjoyed his first trip by participating in one of the longest All-Star games in decades. If Quentin continues on his current pace, he will be sure to enjoy more All-Star festivities in his future.
If I'm not mistaken, this photo was taken at the Home Run Derby preceding the 2008 All-Star game. Like Joe Crede's All-Star card before, Carlos was cut out from his background and placed among a gold and white color scheme. This still retains the look of a painting, thanks to various Photoshop filters.
I love the look of amazement on Carlos' face in the photo. There's not much that phases Carlos during a game, but it looks like he was in awe of some of those home run shots.
