Here’s
a 1972 card for former pitcher Greg Garrett of the Cincinnati Reds, who
appeared in two games during the 1971 season, the final two games of
his brief career:
Garrett came over to Cincinnati from the California Angels, for whom he
came up with the previous year, appearing in 32 games and posting a 5-6
record with a nice 2.65 earned run average over 74.2 innings pitched.
For the Reds, he posted a 0-1 record with a 1.04 E.R.A., starting one of
those two games while in a Cincinnati uniform, throwing 8.2 innings and
walking a whopping ten batters.
Turns out those two brief seasons would be it for his Major League
career, ending up with a 5-7 record, with a 2.48 E.R.A., 55 strikeouts
and 54 walks over 83.1 innings.
