1971 Topps #334 Roberto Pena


About Roberto Pena
Pena was traded to the Oakland Athletics for first baseman Ramon Webster on March 24, 1970, and to the Milwaukee Brewers for second baseman John Donaldson on May 18. He batted .241 with 3 home runs and 45 RBIs for the two clubs. His 1971 Topps card is #334 in the third series and pictures him as a Brewer. In his final major league season, he tied a game on June 21, 1971 with a bottom-of-the-ninth single off California's Rudy May and won it with another single in the 10th, off Dave LaRoche.
Roberto Pena was a Dominican shortstop who reached the majors with the Chicago Cubs in 1965 after coming over from the Pittsburgh system. In his April 12, 1965 debut he homered off Bob Gibson and drove in three runs but made three errors in an 11-inning tie. The Cubs sent him to the minors that June and again in 1966, and he reached the Phillies in 1968, where he became the majors' first Dominican everyday shortstop. He started the inaugural game in San Diego Padres history in 1969, then went to the Oakland Athletics and Milwaukee Brewers, hitting the first grand slam in Brewers history. Over six big league seasons he played shortstop, second base, third base and first base. He played winter ball at shortstop for the Aguilas Cibaenas, who retired his uniform number after his death.
