Set of the Month

1998 Stadium Club is a 400-card set released in two series of 200 cards. For some strange reason, the first series is known as the "Odd Series" and contained the odd numbered base cards (1-399) and the Even Series included even numbered cards (2-400).

Two separate Cal Ripken, Jr. Sound Chip cards were distributed as box toppers in Home Team Advantage boxes.

Subsets include: Prime Rookies (even-numbered 332-354), Future Stars (odd-numbered 361-379), Draft Picks (odd-numbered 381-399) and Transactions (even-numbered 356-400).
