1966 Topps #138 Roger Repoz
About Roger Repoz
Repoz opened 1966 back with the Yankees, hitting well in limited duty before a June 10 trade sent him to the Kansas City Athletics along with pitchers Bill Stafford and Gil Blanco. He led the Athletics in home runs the rest of the season. This 1966 Topps issue, from the set's second print series, pictures him with New York and was a recognized rookie card.
Roger Repoz was a left-handed-hitting outfielder from Bellingham, Washington, who starred at Western Washington University before signing with the Yankees. He reached the majors in September 1964 and spent parts of three seasons in New York before a June 1966 trade sent him to Kansas City, then on to California a year later. Standing 6-foot-3, Repoz built a reputation as a strong defender who could also drive the ball, topping double figures in home runs five times. From 1967 to 1970 he set a major-league record for nonpitchers by going 347 games without hitting into a double play. His best power seasons came with the Angels, including 18 homers in 1970. He finished his major-league-affiliated career with Baltimore's system in 1972, then spent five productive seasons in Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball before retiring to a long career in carpet mill manufacturing.
