NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1978 MIKE BEARD

Time to go ahead and give former Atlanta Braves pitcher Mike Beard one last “not so missing” card to wrap up his four-year MLB career, this one a 1978 edition:


Beard played the last of his Big League games during the 1977 season, appearing in four games while not factoring in a decision, with a bloated 9.64 earned run average over 4.2 innings of work.
He spent all four seasons with Atlanta, coming up in 1974 with six appearances before having a nice 1975 year when he went 4-0 over 34 games with an ERA at 3.20.
All told, he finished his career with a record of 4-2 over 74 appearances, posting a final ERA of 3.74 over 118 innings pitched, all but two of those games out of the bullpen.
