Inserted into every copy of Akklaim's Frank Thomas Big Hurt Baseball video game was a "Special Edition" Frank Thomas baseball card. The design of the card is identical to that of the 1995 Leaf base set, only with the Big Hurt Baseball logo on the front. The card is sequentially-numbered as "SPECIAL EDITION" on the back.

Neither the card, nor the game, were licensed by MLB Properties, and as such, all Chicago White Sox logos were airbrushed on the card.
