1967 Topps #328 Clete Boyer
About Clete Boyer
This is Boyer's first Topps card as a Brave, #328 in the fourth series, and it follows the November 29, 1966 trade that sent outfielder Bill Robinson and pitcher Chi-Chi Olivo to New York for him. The line behind it is his last Yankees season: .240 with 14 home runs and 57 RBI in 1966, for a club that finished last for the first time since 1912. Atlanta dealt Eddie Mathews to Houston that December and handed Boyer the job Mathews had held since the franchise's final year in Boston. On April 11, 1967, at the Astrodome, he became the first Atlanta Brave to wear number 6 in a regular-season game.
Cletis Leroy 'Clete' Boyer, born February 9, 1937, in Cassville, Missouri, grew up in Alba as one of fourteen children; all seven Boyer boys signed professional contracts, and two older brothers reached the majors -- Cardinals pitcher Cloyd, and Ken, the St. Louis third baseman named 1964 National League MVP. Kansas City signed Clete for a reported $35,000 bonus on May 30, 1955, and the bonus-baby rule sent him from Alba High School straight to the Athletics with no minor league time at all. A 13-player deal, finally completed on June 4, 1957, made him a Yankee, and he took over third base in 1960 on the strength of an arm and a glove teammates rated with anyone's. He played in five straight Yankees World Series from 1960 through 1964, winning in 1961 and 1962. Traded to Atlanta after the 1966 season, he put up career highs in 1967 and won a Gold Glove in 1969; with Ken already holding five, the Boyers became the first brothers to each win the award. He hit .242 with 162 home runs and 654 RBI across 16 major league seasons, then played four years in Japan for the Taiyo Whales, coached in the majors, and died June 4, 2007.
