NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1976 CHARLIE CHANT

Up on the blog today we have a “not so missing” 1976 card for former outfielder Charlie Chant, who made his MLB debut during the 1975 season with the Oakland A’s:


Chant appeared in only five games for the American League West champs, going 0-5 at the plate while scoring a run while playing the corner outfield positions.
Over the Winter of 1975 he’d be traded to the St. Louis Cardinals for speedster Larry Lintz, and he’d end up playing 15 games during the 1976 season, collecting two hits over 14 at-bats, in what turned out to be the games of his MLB career.
After a full season of Minor League ball in the St. Louis organization in 1977, he’d call it a career, finishing up with 20 games played, two hits, and a run scored.
