1967 Topps #464 Dan Coombs


About Dan Coombs
Card #464 comes from the sixth series. The 1966 line on its back is two appearances long: two and two-thirds innings for Houston, three strikeouts, a 3.38 ERA and no decision. The Astros around him finished eighth at 72-90, twenty-three games behind the pennant-winning Dodgers.
Daniel Bernard Coombs, printed as 'Dan Coombs' on his Topps cards but known as Danny, was born March 23, 1942, in Lincoln, Maine. He pitched and played basketball at Seton Hall University, then signed as an amateur free agent before the 1963 season. The 6-foot-5 left-hander debuted for the Houston Colt .45s on September 27, 1963, and stayed seven seasons in the Colt .45s/Astros organization, used almost entirely in relief; his 40 appearances in 1968 were a career high. San Diego purchased his contract on October 22, 1969, and the Padres handed him a rotation spot: he made 27 of his 42 career starts in 1970 and went 10-14 with a 3.30 ERA, ninth best in the National League, for a club that lost 99 games. He threw his last big-league innings for San Diego in 1971, finishing nine seasons at 19-27 with a 4.08 ERA, 249 strikeouts and 393 innings in 144 games.
