Today
on the blog we have a “missing” 1971 career-capper for former first
baseman Greg Goossen, who played the last of his Big League games during
the 1970 season:
Goossen finished his MLB career with a split season between the
Milwaukee Brewers and finally the Washington Senators, playing in a
combined 42 games and hitting .241 with 20 hits over 83 at-bats.
In 1969 with the Pilots he had his best year, hitting .309 in 52 games
for the one-year organization, with a power surge of 10 homers in only
139 at-bats.
Over his six seasons under the Big League sun he hit .241 with 111 hits
in 460 at-bats spread out over 193 games between 1965 and 1970, playing
for the New York Mets, Seattle Pilots, Brewers and Senators.
