Up on the blog today, we have a "missing" 1978 card for "original" Blue Jay Dave McKay, who mysteriously was left out of the set after 93 games during the inaugural 1977 Toronto season:
McKay
hit .197 over those 95 games, picking up 54 hits in 274 at-bats,
scoring 18 while driving in 22 after spending parts of his first two Big
League campaigns with the Minnesota Twins in 1975 and 1976.
He
would put in eight seasons as a Major League infielder, playing for the
Twins, Blue Jays and Oakland A's between 1975 and 1982, with the 1978
season being his only full-time year, appearing in 145 games with 537
plate appearances.
Overall
he would bat .229 for his career, collecting 441 hits over his 645
games
and 1928 at-bats before becoming a long-time coach, putting in almost
40 years in that capacity between 1984 and the present day.
