1967 Topps #434 Eddie Fisher
About Eddie Fisher
Fisher spent all of 1967 in the Baltimore bullpen while the defending champions came apart around him, sliding to sixth place at 76-85. He made 46 appearances, every one in relief, working 89.2 innings to a 4-3 record and a 3.61 ERA - solid enough, though the save chances dried up and he recorded just one all year. His 1967 Topps card, #434, is a fifth-series issue picturing him with the Orioles.
Eddie Gene Fisher (1936-2025) was a right-handed knuckleball pitcher, born in Shreveport, Louisiana and raised in southwestern Oklahoma, where he pitched Friendship High School to a 1954 state championship before starring at the University of Oklahoma. He signed with the San Francisco Giants and reached the majors on June 22, 1959. Across fifteen big-league seasons he worked for the Giants, Chicago White Sox, Baltimore Orioles, Cleveland Indians, California Angels and St. Louis Cardinals. After Chicago acquired the great knuckleballer Hoyt Wilhelm in January 1963, Fisher came under his tutelage, and manager Al Lopez reckoned that by 1965 his pupil was throwing the pitch about 85 percent of the time. Fisher became one of the era's busiest relievers, made the American League All-Star team in 1965, and won a World Series ring with the 1966 Orioles without appearing in the Series. He finished in 1973 with an 85-70 record, 81 saves, 812 strikeouts and a 3.41 ERA in 690 games, and at retirement he was the American League's all-time leader in relief appearances. He belongs to the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame, not the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
