1973 Topps #373 Clyde Wright


About Clyde Wright
Wright went 18-11 with a 2.98 ERA for the 1972 Angels, completing 15 of his 35 starts across 251 innings. He pitched two shutouts and struck out 87 batters in that work. Card #373, a third-series issue, pictures him with California.
Clyde Wright was a left-handed pitcher who spent ten major league seasons with the California Angels (1966-73), Milwaukee Brewers (1974) and Texas Rangers (1975). A Tennessee farm boy who starred at Carson-Newman College, he was selected by the Angels in the sixth round of the 1965 draft and reached the majors the following June, beating the Twins on a four-hitter in his debut. After going 1-8 in 1969, he learned a screwball while playing winter ball in Puerto Rico under Jim Fregosi and returned in 1970 to win 22 games, throw a no-hitter against Oakland and earn his only All-Star selection. He later pitched three seasons for the Yomiuri Giants in Japan, alongside Sadaharu Oh and under manager Shigeo Nagashima. He is a member of the NAIA Hall of Fame from his college pitching career.
