1967 Topps #410 Lou Johnson


About Lou Johnson
Johnson rated card 410 in the fifth series after the best year of his career. Walt Alston moved him between left and right field in 1966 to keep a crowded outfield busy, and Johnson answered with career highs across the board: 152 games, 143 hits, 17 home runs, 71 runs, 73 RBI and a .272 average. He also led the majors by getting hit 14 times. Los Angeles took a second straight pennant, then was swept and shut out three times by Baltimore in the World Series, though Johnson's 4-for-15 was the best mark among the Dodger starters.
Louis Brown Johnson, known around Los Angeles as Sweet Lou for his smile and his outgoing way, was a right-handed outfielder from Lexington, Kentucky. The Yankees signed him in 1953 and he spent seven full seasons in the minor leagues before debuting with the Chicago Cubs in April 1960. Brief trials followed with the Los Angeles Angels and Milwaukee Braves, then two more seasons back in the minors, the second of them at Spokane after Detroit traded him to the Dodgers for Larry Sherry in April 1964. His break came in May 1965, when a Tommy Davis ankle injury opened left field at Dodger Stadium; Johnson took the job, helped Los Angeles to a world championship and homered in Game 7. He split left and right field on the 1966 pennant winner, was slowed by injuries in 1967, and finished as a reserve with the Cubs, Cleveland Indians and California Angels. Eight big-league seasons left him at .258 with 48 home runs and 232 RBI in 677 games.
