Cards SS Paul DeJong teams with Topps to collect learners

Who knew we were doing math as we studied the back of our baseball cards and figured out how many shutouts Bob Gibson averaged for the Cardinals in his prime years of 1962-70?

But now, the Topps Company — with Redbird shortstop Paul DeJong batting leadoff — has stepped to the plate with its "Topps of the Class" program that aims to help children study during the coronavirus pandemic.

Starting Monday, to recognize Teacher Appreciation Week, Topps will post lessons and activities on social media — @Topps on Twitter, facebook.
