1967 Topps #440 Steve Hargan
About Steve Hargan
Card number 233, a print series 3 League Leaders card, groups Hargan with Chicago's Gary Peters and Joel Horlen; his 1966 season with Cleveland is the season behind this card. Card number 440, print series 5, follows his breakout 1967 campaign: he opened with back-to-back shutouts in April, made his only All-Star team, and led the American League with six shutouts despite a hamstring injury and elbow tendinitis that shut him down late in the year, finishing 14-13 with a 2.62 ERA for Cleveland.
Steve Hargan was a hard-throwing right-hander from Fort Wayne, Indiana, who signed with the Cleveland Indians in 1961 after a tryout at Municipal Stadium and worked his way up through five minor league stops, sharpening a slider under instruction from Hal Newhouser along the way. He debuted with Cleveland in August 1965 and settled into the rotation the following year. His best stretch came in 1967, when he opened the season with back-to-back shutouts, made his only All-Star team, and led the American League with six shutouts despite pitching through tendinitis. Arm trouble, including an ankle fracture and later carpal tunnel syndrome, shadowed the rest of his career. He remained with Cleveland through 1972, sat out the 1973 season, then pitched for the Texas Rangers from 1974 to 1977 before finishing that final year with brief stops in Toronto and Atlanta.
