1972 Topps #365 Dick Bosman
About Dick Bosman
Bosman went 8-10 with a 3.63 ERA in 1972 for a Rangers club that finished 54-100. He struck out 105 in 173 1/3 innings over 29 starts. His only complete game of the year was the last start of the season, a 1-0 three-hit shutout of the White Sox. Ted Williams quit as manager after the season. Card #365 pictures him with Texas and came out in the third series.
Richard Allen Bosman was a right-handed pitcher who spent eight seasons with the Washington Senators and Texas Rangers before finishing his career with Cleveland and Oakland. Signed by Pittsburgh in 1963, he was later drafted by the Senators and debuted in the majors on June 1, 1966. In 1969, under new manager Ted Williams, Bosman went 14-5 and led the American League with a 2.19 ERA as Washington posted its first winning season in franchise history. He started both the last game in Senators history and the first game in Rangers history. On July 19, 1974, pitching for Cleveland, he no-hit the defending World Series champion Oakland Athletics, missing a perfect game only because of his own fielding error. He closed his playing days with Oakland in 1975-76, then worked as a pitching coach for the White Sox, Orioles and Rangers and in the Rays' system.
