He climbed to **No. 3 in the Braves' organisational rankings**, built on a genuinely unusual minor league approach: **66 walks against 87 strikeouts and a .395 on-base percentage in 501 plate appearances at High-A in 2023**, then a 12.8% walk rate at Triple-A the following year. He **debuted on July 22, 2024 against Cincinnati** — called up the moment Ozzie Albies fractured his wrist. The signature game came a year later: **on September 20, 2025 at Detroit he hit his first two career home runs**, one in the third and one in the eighth, then added a game-tying single in the ninth as Atlanta won its seventh straight. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- ========== 5.

The Heritage logo prints metallic silver. The back's vintage \"cardboard\" texture is a **printed simulation on coated stock**, which is how Heritage Chrome backs are made. **Unnumbered, and that is correct.** 2025 Heritage Chrome is a full 500-card unnumbered set; only the Chrome *Refractor* colour tiers carry serials (Blue \/150, Green \/99, Black \/76, Gold \/50, Orange \/25, Red \/5, SuperFractor 1\/1). All four edges of both sides checked: no serial. **One honest limit.** A flatbed cannot separate **plain Chrome from a Chrome Refractor** — a refractor's rainbow burst only shows when the card is tilted under a light, and the scanner's diffuse illumination flattens it. This card is listed as plain Chrome per the owner's in-hand identification and it carries no serial and no refractor wording, both consistent with that. Stated here rather than papered over. **Rookie Card shield present**, under the Heritage logo. Not a short print — SPs are #401–500. Centering, measured against the outer rectangle of the printed 1976 design block and verified uniformly inset first (left-plus-right 156 px against top-plus-bottom 153 px): **51\/49 left-to-right, 53\/47 top-to-bottom.** Excellent. Corners sharp; the fine serrated edge is the factory cut typical of coated stock. Back code reads CMP097383, with the last digits at the limit of legibility.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- ========== 7.
