Pierce appeared in 11 games for the Braves in 1973, collecting a single over 20 at-bats while playing six of those games at first.
He’d go on to play another six games in 1974 before finding himself with the Detroit Tigers in 1975, playing in 53 games and hitting .235 with 40 hits in 170 at-bats, with eight home runs and 22 runs batted in.
But after that time with the Tigers, he’d go on to play two seasons in both the Mexican and Japanese Leagues in 1976 and 1977 before coming back to America in 1978, where he’d play for the Seattle Mariners organization for two years, never making the Big Leagues however.
After those two Minor League seasons for the Mariners, he went back and played in the Mexican League for the next eight years, retiring for good as an active pro player in 1987.
Overall, as a Major League player, Pierce batted .211 with 42 hits over 199 at-bats in 70 games between 1973 and 1975, with 20 runs scored and 22 RBIs along with eight home runs.
