This is one of the cards I recently received from Spiff over at the Texas Rangers Cards blog. It was one of a hefty box of Phillies and Astros he sent. I'll be refilling the box with Rangers cards for him.I have other examples of cards like this but this one was at hand.
I love these cards where the back photo is a continuation of the play from the front of the card. Biggio was a great at second base. You can see the concentration as he throws the ball to first to complete the second half of a double play as Wally Joyner bears down on him.
I imagine for this type of card, the photographer has his camera on autowind and just holds the shutter button down until the play is over.
I know I have a two cards where the one card features the fielder and the other card features the runner with different shots of the same play. I think it's in the 1993 Upper Deck set. If I ever find them I'll post them.

1991 Topps has a set of cards of plays at the plate from the same Cleveland Indians/Angel game. Check out the Junior Felix card... I know that was one.
