Why This Card Matters
Gosuke Katoh was a New York Yankees second-round pick in the 2013 draft out of Rancho Bernardo High School in California, and it took him until April 9, 2022 to reach the majors — with Toronto, the only major league team he ever played for. That is what makes this card unusual: it is the rookie card of a player whose entire big league career happened in a Blue Jays uniform. This copy is the **Purple Refractor** parallel, a solid purple patterned border rather than the standard chrome finish.

Parallel Note
The Purple Refractor is identified by the solid purple patterned border framing the photo, which replaces the standard silver chrome edge. It is **unnumbered** — all four edges of both sides were checked at magnification and no serial stamp appears; the numbered purple parallels in this product carry a visible print run, this one does not. Back code CMP056783.
