NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1979 TONY MUSER

On the blog today, a “not so missing” 1979 career-capper for former first baseman (and future manager) Tony Muser, who played out his Big League career with 15 games as a Milwaukee Brewer in 1978:


Muser collected four hits over 30 official at-bats, finishing up with a .133 batting average, with five runs batted in and a double and triple thrown in.
He broke into the Big League in 1969 with a handful of games for the Boston Red Sox before moving on to the Chicago White Sox in 1971, where he’d play into 1975.
From there he went on to the Baltimore Orioles, for whom he’d suit up through 1977, never really playing full-time over his nine-year career.
By the time he retired, he finished with a .259 batting average, with 329 hits in 1268 at-bats, with seven homers, 117 RBIs and 123 runs scored in 663 games.
