NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1974 BUDDY HUNTER

The next player featured with a “not so missing” card is former Boston Red Sox infielder Buddy Hunter, who appeared in thirteen games during the 1973 season, giving way to the 1974 card I present here:


Hunter hit a very nice .429 based on his three hits over seven at-bats, along with three runs, two runs batted in and three walks.
That would be the most time he’d see during his short three-year career, appearing in nine other games between the 1971 and 1975 seasons.
All told he’d play in 22 games, batting .294 with five hits over 17 at-bats while playing second and third bases, along with some DH time.
