1971 Topps #713 Mike Marshall


About Mike Marshall
Mike Marshall divided 1970 between Houston and Montreal, and the Astros traded him to the Expos on June 23. He finished 1970 at 3-8 with a 3.86 ERA in 28 games. In 1971 he was 5-8 with a 4.28 ERA and 23 saves. His #713 card, from the sixth series, lists him with Montreal.
Michael Grant Marshall was a right-handed pitcher from Adrian, Michigan, who spent 14 major league seasons with nine clubs between 1967 and 1981. Signed by the Philadelphia Phillies as an amateur free agent, he made his major league debut with the Detroit Tigers in 1967. Seattle took him in the 1968 expansion draft, and after a stop in Houston he reached the Montreal Expos, where he led the National League in games pitched and saves in 1973. Traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers for Willie Davis after the 1973 season, Marshall set a major league record with 106 relief appearances in 1974 and won the National League Cy Young Award, the first reliever to do so. He earned two All-Star selections and closed out his career with the Minnesota Twins and New York Mets. Off the field he earned a doctorate in exercise physiology from Michigan State University and later taught his own pitching mechanics.
