1966 Topps #41 Don Le John
About Don Le John
This card follows LeJohn's only major league season, 1965 with the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he played third base and appeared in 34 games with a .256 average. That fall he got into the World Series as a pinch hitter, striking out in the ninth inning of Game 1 as the Dodgers went on to beat the Minnesota Twins in seven games. Card #41 comes from the first print series of the 1966 Topps set and is recognized as LeJohn's rookie card.
Don LeJohn was a third baseman signed by the Brooklyn Dodgers organization in 1954 who spent most of his long professional career in the minor leagues, earning minor league All-Star honors in 1954, 1955 and 1964. His only major league season came in 1965 with the Los Angeles Dodgers, and he appeared as a pinch hitter in that year's World Series, striking out in the ninth inning of Game 1 as the Dodgers beat the Minnesota Twins in seven games. After his playing days, LeJohn moved into managing within the Dodgers farm system, starting as a player/manager with the Tri-City Atoms in 1967 and continuing at stops including Bakersfield, Waterbury, San Antonio and Lodi over the next two decades. He finished his managerial career with a record of 1,243-1,238 and won two league championships. LeJohn was born in Daisytown, Pennsylvania, and died in California, Pennsylvania, in 2005.
