1970 Topps #204 Len Gabrielson
About Len Gabrielson
Gabrielson was Walter Alston's right fielder on Opening Day 1969, in a lineup that also had Willie Crawford and Ron Fairly, with Don Drysdale pitching. He played in 83 games and hit .270 with one home run. The next year he had 42 at-bats in 43 games, and his last big-league game came on September 30. The Dodgers card is #204, from the second series.
Len Gabrielson was a second-generation big leaguer: his father, Leonard Gabrielson, spent part of the 1939 season with the Philadelphia Phillies. The son, a left-handed-hitting outfielder out of the University of Southern California, signed with the Milwaukee Braves as an amateur free agent on July 19, 1959, and debuted on September 9, 1960, at age 20. Back in the majors with Milwaukee in 1963, he played for five clubs in all (Braves, Cubs, Giants, Angels and Dodgers), with four trades moving him between June 1964 and May 1967. He hit .301 for San Francisco in 1965 and led the Dodgers with ten home runs in 1968. Across nine major league seasons (1960, 1963-1970) he batted .253 with 37 home runs and 176 RBI in 708 games, mostly in left and right field.
