MISSING IN ACTION- 1973 MIKE McQUEEN

Here’s a “missing” 1973 card for former Atlanta Braves pitcher Mike McQueen.
Take a look:


McQueen appeared in 23 games for the Braves, posting a 0-5 record with a 4.60 earned run average and 40 strikeouts over 78.1 innings pitched.
He would spend the 1973 season in the Minors before making his return to a Major League mound in 1974 with the Cincinnati Reds, appearing in 10 games, which would be the final big league games of his five-year career.
By the time he was done he would post a 5-11 career record with a 4.66 ERA and 140 K’s over 73 games and 218.1 innings pitched, all but his final season spent in Atlanta.
