1969 Topps #25 Roy White
About Roy White
White broke out further in 1969, hitting .320 by mid-July and earning his first All-Star selection. He finished the season batting .290 with 74 RBI, drew 81 walks for a .392 on-base percentage, and increased his doubles total to 30, as the Yankees rebuilt their lineup around younger players like Bobby Murcer, Mel Stottlemyre, and Horace Clarke. His 1969 Topps #25 is from the first series.
Roy White was a switch-hitting outfielder who spent his entire 15-year major league career with the New York Yankees, from 1965 through 1979. Signed out of Compton, California, he broke in as a September call-up in 1965 and by 1968 had claimed the everyday left field job, even hitting cleanup behind Mickey Mantle late that season. White made the American League All-Star team in 1969 and 1970, led the league in walks in 1972 and in runs scored in 1976, and set an AL record with 17 sacrifice flies in 1971. A steady, versatile presence through the club's lean late-1960s years, he stayed long enough to help anchor the Yankees' return to prominence, playing on three straight pennant winners from 1976 to 1978 and winning back-to-back World Series titles in 1977 and 1978. He finished with a .271 career batting average, 160 home runs, and 233 stolen bases, and later coached for the Yankees.
