1973 Topps #134 Milt Wilcox


About Milt Wilcox
Wilcox went 8-10 in 1973, and his 5.83 ERA was the highest of his career. He started 19 of his 26 games, completed 4 of them and struck out 82. Card #134 is a second-series card that lists him with the Cleveland Indians.
Milt Wilcox was a right-handed starter whose 16-year career ran through the Reds, Indians, Cubs, Tigers and Mariners and peaked with Detroit's 1984 world championship club. Cincinnati chose him in the second round of the 1968 draft, 33rd overall, and he won his September 5, 1970 debut against San Diego, then won Game 3 of that year's NLCS and lost Game 2 of the World Series. A December 1971 trade to Cleveland for Ted Uhlaender gave him a rotation spot, but a torn shoulder muscle and tendinitis began a slide that ended with the Cubs and the minors. Detroit bought his contract in June 1976, and a winter of bowling helped restore his arm. He won 12 or 13 games a year from 1978 through 1982 and came within one out of a perfect game against the White Sox on April 15, 1983, before Jerry Hairston singled. He won 17 games in 1984, then won the ALCS clincher and Game 3 of the World Series. Shoulder surgery and an 0-8 stop with Seattle ended his career in 1986.
