As I wrote in a series preview post a few years ago, Wilson spent his entire five-year career with the Phillies, going 9-15 in 179 games between 1969 and 1973. Originally drafted in 1962, Wilson spent seven seasons in the minors before getting the call and making his debut as a 26-year-old on April 8, 1969. He'd never actually pitch for the Brewers.
Linzy had put together a relatively successful career as a reliever with the Giants, Cardinals and Brewers and 1974 was to be his final year in the Majors. With the Phillies that season, Linzy appeared in 22 games pitching to a 3.28 ERA. His sole Phillies baseball card can be found within the 1974 Phillies Photocards set.
Wilson also played 1/3 of an inning at 3rd base in 1971!
ReplyDeletesaw the fireworks on friday. they were great....better than the phillies bullpen.
ReplyDeleteDan - I really enjoyed listening to the Phillies game this past week while 6 hours behind the east coast. Gave me a new appreciation of how you're able to enjoy the games.
