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.
