Baseball · Los Angeles Dodgers
Yamamoto's key cards are his 2024 rookies: the Topps Series 2 #553 and Topps Chrome #18 for base collectors, and the 2024 Bowman Chrome Rookie Autograph (#CRA-YY) at the high end. His 2017 BBM #157 from his Orix days is the key pre-MLB card. After he won 2025 World Series MVP, the top of his market jumped: a Bowman Chrome RC auto SuperFractor 1/1 sold for $500,200 at Heritage in August 2026. Base rookies are still affordable, with PSA 10 Topps #553s selling for about $50–75.
