NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1977 LARRY LANDRETH

Today we have a “not so missing” 1977 card for former Montreal Expos pitcher Larry Landreth, who spent parts of two years in the Major Leagues:


Landreth’s total time in the Big Leagues was only seven appearances over those two years, including three games in 1976, the first of his career, all starts, seeing him go 1-2 with an earned run average of 4.09 over 11 innings.
In 1977 he made four appearances, this time going 0-2 with a bloated 9.64 ERA in 9.1 innings, in what turned out to be the last of his career.
He’d stick around the Minors over the following two seasons, but could never make it back to the Majors again, finishing up with a career 1-4 record, with an ERA at 6.64 over seven appearances and 20.1 innings pitched.
