1970 Topps #576 Milt Pappas
About Milt Pappas
Atlanta sold Pappas's contract to the Cubs on June 23, 1970, after he had begun the season with a 6.06 ERA for the Braves. He went 10-8 with a 2.68 ERA for Chicago. For the year he finished 12-10 with a 3.34 ERA in 180 1/3 innings. His sixth-series Topps card, #576, still listed Atlanta.
Milt Pappas signed with Baltimore out of Detroit's Cooley High School and pitched seventeen major league seasons for the Orioles, Reds, Braves and Cubs. He belonged to Baltimore's young pitching staff known as the Kiddie Korps, alongside Chuck Estrada, Steve Barber, Jack Fisher and Jerry Walker. In December 1965 the Orioles traded him, Jack Baldschun and Dick Simpson to Cincinnati for Frank Robinson. Pappas finished with 209 wins, 164 losses, 1,728 strikeouts and a 3.40 ERA in 3,186 innings. He served as player representative in both Baltimore and Cincinnati. The Orioles inducted him into their team Hall of Fame in 1985.
