1968 Topps #391 Bob Priddy


About Bob Priddy
Acquired by Chicago in a February trade, Priddy is shown in a White Sox uniform on this card from the set's fifth print series. He set career highs that season, throwing a career-best 114 innings over 18 starts among his 35 appearances and working two complete games, though the heavy workload left him with a 3-11 record, a 3.63 ERA, and 66 strikeouts.
Robert Simpson Priddy, a right-handed pitcher out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, signed with his hometown Pirates in 1959 and spent thirteen years in professional baseball. He reached the majors in September 1962 and worked in relief and as an occasional starter across parts of nine big-league seasons for six clubs: the Pirates, Giants, Senators, White Sox, Angels, and Braves. His busiest seasons came in 1967 with Washington, where he made a career-high 46 appearances, and in 1968 with Chicago, where he logged a career-high 114 innings and 18 starts. Priddy's path included several notable trades, among them a 1965 deal that sent him to the Giants for catcher Del Crandall, a later swap with Washington that brought pitcher Mike McCormick back to San Francisco, and a 1969 move to Atlanta in a package that also included knuckleballer Hoyt Wilhelm. He finished his career with the Braves in 1971, closing out with a 24-38 record, a 4.00 ERA, and 18 saves over 249 games. Priddy died in 2023 at age 83.
