1970 Topps #507 Pat Corrales
About Pat Corrales
Corrales caught 29 games for the 1969 Reds behind Johnny Bench, hitting .264 with 1 home run and 5 RBI. His wife Sharon died on July 22 of that year after the birth of their son Jason. In 1970 he appeared in 43 games, and his one World Series at-bat, a pinch-hit groundout against Mike Cuellar, ended Game Five. His card is #507 from the fifth series, listed with the Reds.
Pat Corrales was a backup catcher who spent nine big-league seasons behind the plate, from his 1964 debut with the Philadelphia Phillies through stops with the St. Louis Cardinals, Cincinnati Reds, and San Diego Padres, finishing his playing days in 1973. A Los Angeles native who signed with the Phillies out of Fresno High School, he was regarded as an excellent defensive catcher and a student of the game. His busiest season came in 1965, when he took Gus Triandos's place in the Phillies' catching platoon after Triandos was sold to Houston. Traded to St. Louis after that year, he later served for several seasons as Johnny Bench's backup in Cincinnati and appeared once in the 1970 World Series. After retiring as a player, Corrales moved into coaching and managing, leading the Texas Rangers, Phillies, and Cleveland Indians over parts of nine seasons, then spent decades more as a big-league coach and front-office assistant, remaining in professional baseball into his eighties.
