Today's blog post has a "not so missing" 1971 card for a guy I have created other such slabs in the past, former infielder Ed Goodson of the San Francisco Giants:
Goodson
made his Major League debut in 1970, appearing in seven games and
hitting .273 with three hits over eleven at-bats with a run scored.
He would appear in 20 games the following year, hitting .190 with
eight hits over 42 at-bats, with four runs scored and a run batted in.
Basically a player off the bench his entire career, he had a very nice 1973 season for San Fran when he batted .302 with 12 homers and 53 runs batted in over 102 games, easily his best season in the Major League.
Overall for his eight-year MLB career, Goodson finished with a .260 batting average, with 329 hits over 1266 at-bats, with 108 runs scored and 170 runs batted in, with 30 homers in 515 games between 1970 and 1977.
