NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1975 DANNY GODBY

On the blog today, we have a "not so missing" 1975 card for 13-game Major League outfielder Danny Godby of the St. Louis Cardinals:


Godby's entire Big League career spanned about a month and a half between August 10th and September 25th of 1974, hitting .154 with two hits over 13 at-bats with two runs scored and a run batted in.
Originally drafted by the Cincinnati Reds, he spent 1968 through 1974 in the Minors before his call-up, and sadly for him it would be the only taste of the Majors he'd have, as he would spend the next three years in the Minor League systems of the Boston Red Sox, Cincinnati Reds and Houston Astros, retiring after the 1977 season.
