Here
was a fun card to whip up, a “not so missing” 1976 card for former
Boston Red Sox player Buddy Hunter, who played in one single game during
the 1975 season:
Hunter went hitless in his lone at-bat for the Red Sox during their
American League championship season while playing second base in what
would be his last taste of the Majors in his brief three year career.
Over that time he collected five hits in 17 at-bats, good for a very
nice .294 average with five runs scored and a couple of runs batted in.
In a bit of a quirk for his career, he played his games in the 1971,
1973 and 1975 seasons, missing out on the years in between, and playing
through the 1979 season in the Boston Minor League system, spending his
entire 11-year pro career with the organization.
