The Topps Company, the exclusive trading card partner of Major League Baseball, have released their annual baseball card set which includes fan favourites, superstars, up-and-coming rookies and the recent addition of popular First Pitch™ inserts.

Featured among the first pitch series, is none other than Donny Franks, Stephen Colbert’s hot dog vending alter ego. Franks, who threw the first pitch for the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field, was featured in the segment ‘Everyone’s a Weiner When Stephen Visits Wrigley Field’ on the 22nd September, 2016 episode of the ‘Late Show with Stephen Colbert’.

Previously, Stephen Colbert threw the first pitch, or in this case pint of Americone Dream, to Jerry Greenfield (of Ben & Jerry’s) at a Charleston RiverDogs game on Saturday, 7th July, 2007.
