Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
In this episode of Jaspies on Fanatics Live, host Joe conducts a three-box break featuring the highly anticipated 2026 Under Wraps autographed MLB baseballs, Volume I. The segment begins with a dice roll to determine which box will be opened first, ultimately selecting the third box from the left. Inside, the first reveal belongs to Dan Dazzy Swanson, an active shortstop for the Chicago Cubs who is currently recovering from an injury. Swanson is highlighted as a two-time All-Star and World Series champion known for his combination of power and speed, having posted a solid season with 18 home runs and 66 RBIs before his time on the injured list.
The second box yields a retired legend in Chase Utley, who is identified as the "silver fox" and a six-time All-Star for the Philadelphia Phillies. Utley, now 47 years old, boasts an impressive career with 259 home runs and over 1,000 RBIs across his time with two teams. The host confirms that all Chase Utley autographed balls in this set are assigned to the Phillies, noting that while the packaging felt tight, the reveal was successful. This discovery marks the second consecutive box containing a player from a Chicago team, following Swanson's appearance with the Cubs.
The final and most significant reveal comes from the third box, which contains an autographed ball for Frank Thomas, affectionately known as "The Big Hurt." Thomas is celebrated as a first-ballot Hall of Famer with 521 career home runs and two AL MVP awards, having played his entire career primarily with the Chicago White Sox. The host expresses excitement over this find, noting that it completes a set where both Chicago franchises—the Cubs and the White Sox—have been represented in the first three boxes alongside the Phillies.
To conclude the break, the host addresses the fact that several other teams did not receive a hit in this specific batch. As a consolation prize for viewers who missed out on a team hit, Joe announces that $250 worth of break credit will be awarded to the Texas Rangers. He thanks the audience for participating and encourages them to join future breaks on Fanatics Live, ending the session with a friendly sign-off after successfully distributing the autographed baseballs from this volume.

Not Bobby Bonia. He was an outfielder
and is no longer active.
>> Not Seager. Not Lindor. Dan
Lucky Magic saying no. Not Dan.

I think Lucky Magic might have been on
the right track, but I don't know if he
was actually referring to that player or
not.
Z. Yes, that's the player. So, Lucky
Magic got it early. It's Danby Swanson.
Beu hockey with the Cubs.
I think he had a point sometime this
season where he hit like
seven home runs in like a week or
something like that.
All right, there he is. Dan Swanson.

hockey and the Cubbies.

Um, I should have the should have had
the checklist open. I don't I don't know
what edition of Chase. They have them on
checklist.
Unless the ball will reveal it.
And there's Chase Ali. That's my
instinct as well. I think it's I think
it's going to be Philadelphia, but I'm
going to double check
the checklist to make it official.
Yeah, all Chase balls are Philadelphia.
So that's going to go to
Kev Call and the Philadelphia Phillies.

wrap it like they do the basketballs.
