About this card
This is one of the forty Rookie Stars cards, each showing two or three rookies from one club; #654 (National League) and #702 (American League) each mix three clubs. A Rookie Stars card is a rookie card for the players on it who had no earlier Topps flagship card - on #36, #74, #109, #154, #267, #317, #429, #573, #669 and #683 one of them had already appeared on one, and the rookie-card answer on each card names the players it counts for.
The story on this card
Johnson made 18 appearances for the 1970 White Sox, 15 of them starts, and went 4-7 with a 4.82 ERA. He struck out 71 in 89 2/3 innings. At the plate he had 8 hits in 29 at-bats. His rookie card is #669, a Rookie Stars card in the high-number seventh series that he shares with Dan Lazar and Mickey Scott, all three printed with Chicago. Bart Johnson was a right-handed pitcher who spent every one of his eight big league seasons, 1969-1977, with the Chicago White Sox, going 43-51 with 17 saves, then scouting for the club from 1980 to 1997.
Danny Lazar, a left-hander out of Indiana State, pitched eight games for the 1968 White Sox. In 1969 he appeared in nine, three of them starts, with a 6.53 ERA. Card #669 is a seventh-series high number, a Rookie Stars issue shared with Bart Johnson and Mickey Scott, both on their rookie cards. His last game was October 2, 1969. Left-handed pitcher John Daniel Lazar spent 1968-1969 with the Chicago White Sox after setting a single-game strikeout record at Indiana State, later joining that school's athletics Hall of Fame.
The White Sox acquired Scott for Pete Ward on December 18, 1969, so the 1970 Topps issue lists him with Chicago before he had pitched in the majors. Card #669 is a three-man Rookie Stars panel shared with Bart Johnson and Dan Lazar, all three printed with the White Sox. Left-handed reliever Mickey Scott pitched in 133 games for the Orioles, Expos and Angels from 1972 to 1977, going 8-7 with a 3.72 ERA. Born in Weimar, Germany, he spent nine minor league seasons mostly at Rochester and entered its Hall of Fame in 1998.
