Andrew McCutchen Sketch Card

The Pittsburgh Pirates have been a pleasant surprise this year in Major League Baseball, and they look to be on the verge of breaking 2 dubious streaks that have lasted the past 2 decades. They are about to have their first winning season after 19 consecutive losing ones (a North American sports record). They are also closing in on their first playoff berth since 1992.

One of the major THE major reason for their resurgence has been the amazing play of outfielder Andrew McCutchen. The heart and soul of the Pirates, he is the front-runner for NL MVP this season and has quickly become one of my favorite players. In honor of this incredible athlete, I created this sketch card using the stippling technique.
