Not the best of jobs here with that wild St. Louis Cardinals cap, but then again not the worst by any means either.
Anderson came over to the Cardinals from the division rival Philadelphia Phillies for pitcher Ron Reed straight up in a December 9th, 1975 trade.
He would have a pretty good season in 1976, hitting .291 over 86 games, but would fall to a .221 clip in 1977, which would lead to a crazy 1978 season for him where he was released by the Cardinals, Phillies, then Baltimore Orioles in the space of only seven months.
Ironically he’d play out his last Big League season in 1979 back with the Phillies, hitting .231 over 79 games before playing two seasons in the Minors through 1981 before calling it a career.
Overall, he finished his nine-year career with a .246 average, with 367 hits over 1490 at-bats in 721 games between 1971 and 1979.
