2009 SPx
Description
2009 SPx is a 130-card set released by Upper Deck March 24th, 2009. After 13 years, this would be the final SPx set as Upper Deck's baseball licenses would not be renewed for 2010. The base set features 23 Rookie Autographs all serial-numbered to 99 copies and seven Mystery Rookie Redemptions. Each 18-pack Hobby box will yield nine 20th Anniversary inserts, four Joe DiMaggio Career Highlight insert cards numbered to 425, four jersey cards, two which will be multi-swatch, and either a Jersey Autograph or Rookie Signature.
Each 14-box Hobby case will have two Mystery Rookie Redemptions, two game jersey patch cards serial-numbered to 99 copies or fewer, an autographed patch card numbered to 50 or fewer, and one 20th Anniversary Memorabilia card.
The design of the base set was panned by collectors as it looked too much like Upper Deck X.
Distribution
18 packs per box, four cards per pack. 14 boxes per case. Hobby only.

Mystery Rookie Redemptions
Seven Mystery Rookie Redemption cards (sequentially-numbered #RR1-#RR7) were randomly inserted into SPx packs. Over the course of the 2098 season, Upper Deck would reveal the player each card was good for. Collectors had until June 30th, 2011 to redeem their cards. Since the fulfilled cards were sequentially-numbered as part of the SPx base set, they are eligible for the "RC" tag.
NOTE: Unlike the pack-inserted Rookie Signatures, the fulfilled Mystery Rookie Redemption cards are NOT serial-numbered. We estimate that no more than 200 Mystery Rookie Redemptions for each card were inserted into packs.
- 124 Matt Wieters RC EXCH
- 125 Colby Rasmus (RC) EXCH
- 126 Josh Reddick RC EXCH
- 127 Mat Latos RC EXCH
- 128 Andrew McCutchen (RC) EXCH
- 129 Chris Tillman RC EXCH
- 130 Koji Uehara RC EXCH

Joe DiMaggio Career Highlights
Similar to sets for Cal Ripken, Jr. in 2007 and Ken Griffey, Jr. a year later, this is a 100-card tribute set dedicated to Joe DiMaggio. Since all 100 cards are of DiMaggio, displaying the full checklist would be repetitive, and pointless.
Each card is serial-numbered to 425 copies. It should be noted that on the sell sheet distributed by Upper Deck, this set was to have been serial-numbered to 999 copies.
Autographs and Game-Used
Game Jersey
Each Game Jersey is also available in a Patch parallel, which is serial-numbered to 99 copies.
NOTE: Derek Jeter's Game Patch card (#GJ-DJ) is serial-numbered to only 50.
