Back for a fourth season, 2023 Topps Chrome Black Baseball is set to make its annual postseason return.
Like the name implies, Chrome Black puts a darker touch on the familiar Chrome brand name.
Each box will once again carry four cards: one encased autograph, one Refractor parallel and two Chrome Black base cards. Cases will hold 12 boxes.
The base set will include 100 cards and there will be Rookie Design Variations packed one per case.
