NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1974 NORM ANGELINI

Here’s a “not so missing” 1974 card for former pitcher Norm Angelini, who pitched the final seven games of his brief two-year Major League career in 1973:


Angelini made seven relief appearances during his second season in the big leagues, posting a 4.91 earned run average over 3.2 innings of work, walking seven and striking out three.
He had his first taste of the “big show” in 1972, when he appeared in 21 games for the Kansas City Royals, posting a record of 201 with a very nice 2.25 era over 16 innings pitched.
He’d end up toiling in the Minor Leagues for another seven years, through the 1981 season, for the Royals, Atlanta Braves and Montreal Expos organizations, but never get back to MLB ball before he retired from pro-ball.
