NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1974 DAMASO BLANCO

On the blog today is the third and final “not so missing” card I have created for former San Francisco Giants infielder Damaso Blanco, this one a 1974 edition:

Blanco appeared in 28 games for San Fran in what was the second of his three-year Big League career, going 0-12 at the plate with four runs scored.
It was quite thr drop from his MLB debut the year before where he appeared in an equally minimal amount of games (39), but hit a robust .350 with seven hits in 20 at-bats.
The 1974 season would see him appear in the final five games of his brief career, with a single hitless at-bat to show for it, thus concluding a three-year career that saw him go 7-for-33 at the plate, good for a .212 average, with nine runs scored over 72 games, all with the Giants.
A career Minor Leaguer, he originally became a pro back in 1961 at the age of 19 before toiling through the Giants system until his big break in 1972 at the age of 30.
