I ripped a lot of 84 and never could pull Donnie Baseball. He rips 2 packs and does it. He could always get hits. Donnie 4 HOF!

Of course Don Mattingly pulled his own rookie card in a random draw, out of just two packs, on video. That's exactly the kind of man that Don Mattingly is.

Back in 85 the mattingly donruss rookie card was worth $200 . It was the most valuable card of that year by far.

Wow. That was a mint. I remember the Canseco a year or two later. If you had that card/ you were the man!

Met Don many, many times in his hometown of Evansville. He's 100% one of the nicest human beings you would want to meet.

Don has a great personality and communication skills ans so down to earth he would be my manager if I owned a team

So right about Carew. Top 5 professional hitter all-time. Mattingly was a pro's pro. Enjoyable clip......

This is really cool, it’s like watching someone go through a photo album of people they used to work with at a job they really liked

love ya Donnie but killin those corners! LOL

Being from the Evansville, Indiana area, and loving collecting cards as a kid, Mattingly is one of my all time favorites. I never got any packs until '86, and Topps was my favorite card company. I did pull a Tony Gwynn out of a pack of '83 Topps I fond while helping the owner of a store that I used to by cards at as a kid, in the early 2000's. Speaking of Topps, I now have almost every 1986 Topps baseball card ever except the Topps traded Tiffany set, and a few of the harder to find Topps 3d cards.

Word Josh.

I am from Evansville IN like Don and when I was a kid I met him at my cousins basketball game. I was beyond excited to meet him and he signed a piece of paper for me that my mom had pulled out of her purse. I still have it all these years later with one of his cards in a frame. I will always remember how kind he was to me.

Donnie was THE card to have back then. Never had a rookie 😢

Put Donnie Baseball in the HOF right now!!!!!

It kind of amazes me as time has gone by that Mattingly never got a coaching opportunity with the Yankees. He'd be a great manager for the Yankees today.

I'm from Boston was born in 1976 and I still have a note for Christmas that I wrote to my mother. I asked her for Don mattingly rookie. She got it for me. That guy was so smooth at the plate

This is fantastic. Thank you so much for doing these. Mattingly is what every kid should aspire to be -- clean-cut, humble, respectful, studious, and one of the purest hitters the game has ever known. Thanks for the wonderful memories, Donny Baseball. He WILL land in Cooperstown eventually.

Don Mattingly was one of my favorite baseball players growing up. I collected a lot of his cards and I have that 1984 Topps rookie card in my collection.

Love this video and Don Mattingly is a class act

Donnie Baseball was my favorite player. Consummate pro. Wish he had been healthier, would have put up amazing numbers. Still should be in the HOF. 🏆🏆

He simply took too much BP. Always hitting. Swing after swing. He mentioned that in a documentary that he basically wore his back out.

Raw Mattingly 1984 Topps rookie card = $15-20. Raw 1984 Topps rookie card pulled, dented, and signed by Mattingly = priceless

The world became a better place on Thursday April 20,1961 with the birth of Donald Arthur Mattingly in Evansville,Indiana!⚾🇺🇸

My favorite Yankee of all time! #23 forever!

That's why he's Donnie Baseball. Man has so many baseball stories it's insane.

This is so cool to watch Love donnie baseball ⚾️ ❤️

So awesome that Donny Baseball pulled is own card during the rip, very cool. Favorite player card Don pulled Is Nolan Ryan. Thanks

The legend! Lots of great cards there. Mattingly RC!! 💪😎 This was a great episode of topps Ripping Packs!

1984 Topps is still my favorite design.

I have soooooooooo many Donnie Baseball cards, memorabilia, autographed jersey...awesome. Favorite player. Go Yanks.

Now Donny baseball will always be my favorite and this is a fun video miss you playing 84 was the 1st and best year for me collecting baseball cards still wish I could meet you Don you were fun to watch play a great game.

claudell washington. i remember him playing right field in yankee stadium. there was a guy in the bleachers that had a big sign that said "claudell washington slept here".

“Gotta keep those edges perfect” as mere seconds earlier she’s tapping the bottom edge of the card on the table like she’s straightening out a deck of playing cards.

It is CRIMINAL that he is not in the Hall

Legend, I've opened a bunch of packs trying for that card and he does it in 2 LOL. Favorite card was the Mattingly, but love the Carew. most of all love all the stories! Thanks for sharing this!

Excellent share.

I have about 20 raw NM versions of Don's topps RC and still can never have enough.

My childhood hero, Mr. Mattingly.

Love how he bangs the cards on the table

Hell yeah! Donnie Baseball!

Glad he pulled his own Rookie We Subscribed to Topps Just now because you have Mattingly on here .. Pretty Cool !!!

This was spectacular.

My favorite episode yet.

THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SO AWESOME TO SEE HIM AUTOGRAPH HIS OWN ROOKIE CARD AS HE PULLED IT OUT OF THE PACK I THINK THAT CARD THEN WOULD HAVE BEEN WORTH A TON

Always loved Donnie as a kid until I got to meet him. He refused to sign an auto for me when I was 8....heart broken.

My favorite baseball player ever !!!!

It makes sense that Don Mattingly is totally oblivious to the condition of the cards since he could actually play baseball and was involved in other stuff like actually dating real women, etc. And I say this as someone who has many PSA 10 graded cards.

Mattingly, get rid of those sideburns.

Also love to mention my Roar of 84 bless you boys Tigers winning the World Series in 84. So it made it a very fun time for me collecting 🙂

7:00 he proceeds to destroy the condition of the card in the next 30 seconds or so haha....

A lot of people don't realize that back in the day if they autograph the card it hurt the value

JUST AN INCREDIBLE HITTER! HE SHOULD BE IN THE HALL OF FAME! BEING A HUGE YANKEE FAN, MATTINGLY WAS MY GUY, AND IN MY OPINION, HE WAS THE GREATEST FIELDING FIRST BASEMAN OF ALL TIME! PERIOD!

Probably a resealed pack. Maybe not.... rip som gpk!! Love Don Mattingly

I've never seen a pack of 1984 topps where Don Mattingly was pulled and Broderick Perkins wasn't the card before Donnie baseball. Ive personally pulled a few and every single time, the pre-cursor card was Broderick Perkins for the Indians. Kinda weird.

Great interview young lady! ☺️

Love you Donnie 😎

Donnie Baseball 4 Life!

Seems like such a nice guy

i loves so much collect cards

Imagine : Don Mattingly, Ricky Henderson and Dave Winfield on the same team with no ring.

Happy to see him with the Jays

Can't belive that auto didn't turn into a 1 of 1 in archives.

what a great idea.

Saw the Yankees play a weekend series with the Brewers. Donnie would not sign and he took his own car not the bus when leaving. 1984. Be careful with that card, put it in a sleeve!

Kirk Gibson and Don were my heroes. Also George Foster to a lesser degree because he was in all the variety packs at Toys R US.

0:22 I think it’s safe to say that Don Mattingly likes his nickname.

He belongs in the Hall!

RIGGED!!! But I love the interview with Don Mattingly....he is awesome

“Thee man, Rod Carew”

Bring back the stash Donnie!

I had to buy his rookie, never got lucky enough to pull one. I do have a PSA 9 o pee chee Mattingly that I'm quite fond of.

People don't realize Don Mattingly kept his rookie cards when kids sent them to him to get signed I'm a Yankees fan but not Don Mattingly fan

Topps doesn't need to open a pack to know what cards are inside. Ofcourse he opens his rookie card

7:22... He pulls his Rookie card, and then she bangs it on the table. WTF! Probably dinged a corner

Those packs are repacked. 😂

He should be in the hall of fame, other players with shortened careers made it in

I'll take the signed Rookie!!!!

Rookie Mattingly what !!!!!

He pulled himself lol

A's and Reds fan, interesting

Best hitter of the 80s next to Gwynn and Boggs

She just told Donnie baseball…. That’s what baseball is all about! The nerve….

GEE Wonder if there is no chance the pack was tampered with to make the video better? lol.......

I eat the gum. Eventhough I shouldn't.

Grab some 2021 Series 1 NFTs - Topps 1st NFT release ever! SUPER RARE

So wtf, he can’t keep his card ?!?
