Eric Dettman's two best cards arrived months apart and had little in common. The Dodgers helped his MLB entry take 39th for 213. Golf was better still: the four-major total reached 499.7, with 125.8 at The Open, and brought 23rd and 229.
Between them sat three severe misses. Ohio State's 69 led a college football card with six empty shares, leaving Dettman 239th; March and the NBA followed at 219th and 209th.
Golf's 23rd joined a 97th-place World Cup card to recover 47 places at the close. Dettman arrived at 140th with 1236, two big scores having done the work of a balanced season.
