Almost done with this set. There are only 57 cards in this set, so I've only got one more post after this one.
#52 - Llindblad
He set a record by playing 385 games without committing an error - 1966 to 1974. That wasn't enough to keep his Kellogg's card from having an error in the stats.
Not on the card - he pitched one inning of a combined no-hitter in 1975.
#53 - Thurman Munson
Munson won the 1970 Rookie of the Year award. I like how they describe him as "stocky".
#54 - Steve Garvey
The 1974 NL MVP had a great season in 1975 with career highs in average, hits and doubles. He made the all-star team in 1974 as a write-in candidate. He then went on to win the MVP award in the game.
Not on the card - even though the Cubs finally won the World Series I haven't changed my thoughts on Steve Garvey.
A look at Kellogg's cereal cards and related items from all sports.
