The cards have rounded borders, and the fronts feature black and white player portraits but lack team logos. Beneath the photo is the player’s name in capital letters and a series of information, including their position, birth date, height, and throwing/batting preferences.

The back of the cards has the player’s name centered along the top, again in all capital letters, but this time in red text. Beneath that are the board game situations.
