1970 Topps #648 Larry Haney
About Larry Haney
Haney got into two games for Oakland in 1970, going 0-for-2 with two runs scored, and the A's loaned him to Montreal's Triple-A club, which began the year in Buffalo and finished it in Winnipeg. He said Oakland did not want him and Gene Tenace, then catching at Des Moines, on the same club splitting time. His #648 card is a seventh-series high number and shows him with the Oakland Athletics.
Larry Haney was a defensive-minded catcher who spent 12 seasons in the majors from 1966 to 1978 as a backup for the Baltimore Orioles, Seattle Pilots, Oakland Athletics, St. Louis Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers. Signed by Baltimore out of high school in Virginia, he made his debut on July 27, 1966 and homered in his second big-league at-bat off Cleveland's John O'Donoghue. Haney's calling card was his glove: a .985 career fielding percentage and an arm that caught 39 percent of attempted base stealers. He was on Oakland's roster for the entire 1974 championship season, appearing in two World Series games as the Athletics beat the Los Angeles Dodgers. Across 480 career games he hit .215 with 12 home runs and 73 RBI. After retiring as a player, Haney spent decades in the Brewers organization as a bullpen coach and pitching coach.
