NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1974 GARY IGNASIAK

Here’s a “not really” missing card for Detroit Tigers pitcher Gary Ignasiak,who appeared in three total games during the 1973 season:


Those three appearances, all in relief, would be sum total of Ignasiak’s Major League career, not figuring in a decision while pitching 4.2 innings to the tune of a 3.86 earned run average.
He’d be back in the minors for 1974, posting a record of 11-11 split between double and triple-A before closing out his pro career the following season after going 6-15 with a bloated 5.79 ERA.
