1966 Topps #233 Dom Zanni
About Dom Zanni
Card #233 comes out of the third series, plain mid-set territory, and it is the last of his three cards in the 1960s Topps run. Zanni spent most of 1966 in the minors and was recalled to Cincinnati in September. He got five outings out of the bullpen and did not allow an earned run in 7.1 innings, the one run charged to him being unearned, with three walks and five strikeouts. The Reds finished seventh at 76-84 under two managers, Don Heffner and then Dave Bristol, and Zanni's last big-league appearance came on October 1.
Dominick Thomas Zanni, a right-handed pitcher born in the Bronx on March 1, 1932, came out of Boys High School in Brooklyn and signed with his hometown New York Giants as an amateur free agent before the 1951 season. He spent most of the 1950s climbing the minors, throwing a no-hitter for Sioux City of the Western League in June 1954 and helping the Phoenix Giants win the 1958 Pacific Coast League title, which earned him a September call-up and a debut win over St. Louis on September 28, 1958. He was a bullpen man almost from the start, with only three starts in 111 big-league games, and he pitched parts of seven seasons between 1958 and 1966 for the Giants, Chicago White Sox and Cincinnati Reds, finishing 9-6 with a 3.79 ERA, ten saves and 148 strikeouts over 183 innings. Winters took him to the Dominican Republic and to Puerto Rico, where after the 1960 season he went 6-0 with a 2.73 ERA. Following a 1967 season with the minor league Buffalo Bisons he left the game, spent 27 years in the insurance business, and died in Massapequa, New York, in 2017 at 85.
