NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1975 DANNY FIFE

Today’s blog post has a “not so missing” 1975 card for former Minnesota Twins pitcher Danny Fife who had a brief two-year Major League career between 1973 & 1974:


Fife appeared in only four games for the Twins in 1974, not factoring in a decision while sporting an earned run average at 17.36 over 4.2 innings.
Turns out those would be the last appearances on a Big League mound for the righty, who made his debut in 1973 when he went 3-2 with an ERA at 4.35 over 10 appearances and 51.2 innings of work.
After only eight appearances in the Minor Leagues during the 1975 season where he went 3-1 with a 3.56 ERA, he called it a career.
