Bartolo Colon's home run already featured on Topps baseball card

The impossible becomes possible.

That's how the card Topps has chosen to immortalize Bartolo Colon's memorable and historic first career home run, which occurred during Saturday's 6-3 win against the Padres.

On Sunday, Topps announced that Colon's home run swing will be the featured ToppsNow card of the day, which means it will be available for a limited time. Fans have until Monday morning to visit Topps.com and purchase the card for $9.99.

Apparently, Colon cards are a pretty big hit these days. Not that that's surprising. This is the second time he's been featured already this season, joining the likes of Bryce Harper, Trevor Story and Neil Walker.

Colon's home run was certainly special, and the moment is definitely worthy of having its own card. It was one of those moments in time where baseball fans everywhere came together in celebration, all out of respect for a player who at nearly 43 years old continues to play the game like he was 13.

There's no substitute for passion, and everything about his moment and this baseball card capture that passion.
