GIMMIE A DO-OVER OF ONE OF MY OWN: 1975 DAMASO BLANCO

Since I found a better image for Damaso Blanco of the San Francisco Giants over what I originally used, I went ahead a recreated the "missing" card originally on the blog back in 2019, so here it is:


Closing out what was a three-year Big League career that saw him hit .212 over 72 games and 33 at-bats, with seven hits and nine runs scored between 1972 and 1974, all for 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.
His career was played entirely for the San Francisco organization, with only those three partial years in the Majors mentioned above, totaling 14 years as a professional.
