1975 Kellogg's Baseball Card Backs # 10 - 12

Let's see if the lower numbered cards in the set continue to be interesting. 

#12 - Leroy Stanton

When I got this card in 1975 I said "who is this guy?".  At this point he never had played more than 127 games in a season.

 Stanton came to the Angels with Nolan Ryan from the Mets.  He led the Angels in RBIs, so maybe I should have known more about him.  Wait, that's 62 RBIs.  To lead the team?

Not on the card - the 1974 Angels

Not on the card - Stanton ended up with seasons of 82 and 90 RBIs later in his career.

When mentioning his stats the card says "Leroy's arithmetic".  ??? 

Nolan Ryan is mentioned twice on the back of the card.   Check that out Ryan collectors.

#11 - Pete Rose

The card is another well-loved beauty.  Rose failed to defend his batting title and he failed to hit .300 for the first time in nine years.  He's one of the games most exciting players.  

The card calls him "Charlie Hustle" which I like.  The sentence that includes that moniker is one of my favorite on a Kellogg's card.  Here it is ' 

"Don't bet "Charlie Hustle" won't regain his form in 1975."  If you don't believe me, check it out.

#10 - Jon Matlack

Matlack led the NL in shutouts.  He was a #1 draft choice fo the mets.  Even though his record hasn't been great the past few years, Kellogg's mentions that he's one of the most sought-after pitcher in the game.  

He threw eight no-hitters in his 22 high school wins.
