On
the blog today, we have a “not so missing” 1975 card for former
outfielder Tony Scott, adding the the 1974 and 1976 editions I created
over the years:
Scott appeared in 19 games for the Montreal Expos during the 1974
season, hitting .286 with two hits in seven at-bats while manning all
three outfield positions.
He’d get into 92 games in 1975, hitting below the “Mendoza Line” at
.182, collecting 26 hits in 143 at-bats, which pretty much led him to
spend all of 1976 in the Minors before making it back for good in 1977,
now as a member of the St. Louis Cardinals.
He would go on to play on through to 1984 in the Big Leagues closing out
with 45 games for the Montreal Expos after starting the year with the
Houston Astros.
All told, he put in an 11-year career that saw him bat .249 with 699
hits in 2803 at-bats, playing in 991 games between 1973 and 1984.

NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1974 TONY SCOTT
Today’s
blog post has a “not so missing” 1974 card for outfielder Tony Scott,
who made his Major League debut in 1973 with the Montreal Expos:
Scott, who would go on to play eleven seasons in the Big Leagues, went 0-1 at the plate with two runs scored for the Expos in his debut season, while stealing a base and collecting a walk.
He’d see pretty much the same action in 1974, but this time he’d collect two hits over seven at-bats, hitting .286 with five more stolen bases and 19 runs scored.
Turns out after a couple of “cups of coffee” with Montreal in 1973 and 1974, Scott played in 92 games in 1975, good for 159 plate appearances with 26 hits over 143 at-bats, giving him a .182 average.
He’d miss the 1976 season stuck in the Minors, but then go on to play on through to 1984 in the Big Leagues after appearing in 45 games with, who else, the Montreal Expos.
In between he played for the St. Louis Cardinals and Houston Astros, giving him an 11-year career that saw him bat .249 with 699 hits in 2803 at-bats, playing in 991 games before his career ended.
