NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- TERRY CROWLEY

Let’s go and give 15-year Major League veteran Terry Crowley a “not so missing” 1977 card shall we, after being left out of the Topps set that year:


Crowley split the 1976 season between the Atlanta Braves and Baltimore Orioles, hitting a combined .224 with 15 hits over 67 at-bats after spending the previous two years with the “Big Red Machine” Cincinnati Reds.
His Big League career spanned between 1969 and 1983, having the incredible luck of playing for both the 1970 Baltimore Orioles and 1975 Cincinnati Reds, the two top-winning teams of the 1970’s and World Champions.
For his career, Crowley hit .250 with 379 hits in 1518 at-bats, with 42 homers and 229 runs batted in over 865 games playing for the Orioles, Reds, Atlanta Braves and Montreal Expos.
Never more than a fill-in/pinch hitter, Crowley never had more than 283 plate appearances in any one season through his career, with only two years of more than 200.
