1966 Topps #325 Vic Davalillo
About Vic Davalillo
Two cards report the same summer. #216, a third-series leaders card, places his .301 third in the American League batting race behind Tony Oliva and Carl Yastrzemski, the only three men over .300 that year. His own fourth-series card, #325, fills in the rest: 142 games, 152 hits, 67 runs, 19 doubles and 26 stolen bases for Cleveland. That was the summer he started the All-Star Game in center for the American League.
Vic Davalillo was a minor-league pitcher before the bat took over. He won the International League batting title with Jacksonville at .346 in 1962 and reached the majors with Cleveland on April 9, 1963. Across 16 big-league seasons (1963-1980) the left-handed-hitting outfielder played for the Indians, Angels, Cardinals, Pirates, Athletics and Dodgers, won the 1964 Gold Glove in center field as the first left-handed-throwing outfielder honored in the American League, and started the 1965 All-Star Game. He remade himself as a pinch hitter, with 23 for the 1970 Cardinals, a total the record books long carried as 24, and his two-out bunt single in the ninth started the rally that beat Philadelphia in Game 3 of the 1977 NLCS, a series the Dodgers clinched a day later. He won championships with the 1971 Pirates and the 1973 Athletics. Beyond his 1,122 major-league hits he played 30 winter seasons in Venezuela, where he remains the career leader in hits and batting average and joined the Venezuelan Baseball Hall of Fame's 2003 charter class.
