NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1979 MYRON WHITE

Fun card to add to the 1979 “not so missing” collection, a 1979 edition for former Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Myron White:


White appeared in seven games for the Dodgers during the 1978 season, which ended up being the sum total of his Big League tenure.
After starting his pro career in 1975 as a seventeen year old in the Los Angeles system, White finally got the call and played his first game on September 4th of 1978, and proceeded to go 2-for-4 at the plate with a run scored and an RBI.
But come 1979 it was back to the Minors for him, which is where he stayed for the next three seasons, all in the Dodgers system, until he retired after 1981.
Aside from those seven games in 1978, he spent the entirety of his pro career in the Dodgers Minor League system between 1975 and 1981.
