1973 Topps #291 Rogelio Moret


About Rogelio Moret
Card #291 is from the third series. Moret started 1973 in the Boston bullpen, won his first decision on April 22 against Cleveland, and ran off 11 straight wins. He ended 13-2 with a 3.17 ERA and a .867 winning percentage, best on the club, including a 1-0 shutout at Yankee Stadium on July 4 in the second game of a doubleheader sweep.
Roger Moret was a tall, thin Puerto Rican left-hander from Guayama who pitched in the majors from 1970 to 1978 for the Boston Red Sox, Atlanta Braves and Texas Rangers. He signed with Boston out of high school in 1968 and threw a quick fastball with a decent curve and a good changeup. He went 36-15 in his three full seasons with Boston, 1973 to 1975, and led the American League in winning percentage in 1975 (.824). On August 21, 1974, he threw a one-hit shutout against the White Sox, the only hit an infield single by Dick Allen in the seventh. Boston traded him to Atlanta, and a year later the Braves sent him to Texas. His career record was 47-27 with a 3.66 ERA and 12 saves. He later pitched in the Mexican League and died in Guayama in 2020.
