NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1975 BRUCE BOISCLAIR

Here’s a “not so missing” 1975 card for former career-New York Met outfielder Bruce Boisclair, who made his Major League debut during the 1974 season:


Boisclair appeared in seven games for the Mets, hitting .250 with three hits over 12 at-bats, in what would end up being a five year career in the Big Leagues, all with the Mets, between 1974 and 1980.
After a full season in the Minors in 1975, Boisclair was back to stay in 1976, in what would be three straight seasons of full-time action, hitting as high as .293 in 1977, while playing all three outfield positions with some first base thrown in.
He’d appear in only 59 games in 1979, which would turn out to be the last of his career, ending up with a .263 average with 241 hits over 917 at-bats in 410 games, scoring 114 runs and driving in 77.
