About this card
Managers have their own cards this year, separate from the 24 team cards: twenty Field Leaders cards picture a manager with two to four of his coaches, and #578 Ralph Houk of the Tigers is the one solo manager card. The Athletics, Yankees and Padres have a team card but no manager card. Eight Field Leaders cards include a Hall of Famer, among them the Dodgers' Walter Alston and Tom Lasorda (#144) and coaches Bill Mazeroski (#489) and Larry Doby (#531).
About Angels Field Leaders (Bobby Winkles / John Roseboro / Salty Parker / Tom Morgan / Jimmie Reese)
Winkles and Frank Robinson feuded from the start of the 1974 season, partly because Winkles had recommended trading him. The Angels were 30-44 when Winkles was fired in late June after a 5-0 loss at Oakland; Dick Williams replaced him and named Robinson team captain. In July he became third-base coach for the A's, who won that year's World Series over the Dodgers. His #276 is the Angels' managers-and-coaches card, shared with John Roseboro, Salty Parker, Tom Morgan and Jimmie Reese. Bobby Winkles led Arizona State to three national titles, then jumped from campus to the majors in 1972 as an Angels coach and managed California and Oakland to a 170-213 record. He is in the College Baseball Hall of Fame.
Roseboro worked as California's bullpen coach in 1973 and continued into 1974. The Angels' manager-and-coaches card, 1974 Topps #276, paired him with Bobby Winkles, Salty Parker, Tom Morgan and Jimmie Reese. His coaching tenure with the Angels ended when new manager Dick Williams let him go. Future Dodgers catcher John Roseboro began his professional career at Sheboygan in 1952, hitting .365 to finish second in the Wisconsin State League batting race. Army service interrupted his minor league career in 1953 and 1954.
Parker spent 1974 as the California Angels' third-base coach, his second stint with the club. Dick Williams took over as manager in late June that year, and Parker was not asked back for 1975. Topps issued the Angels staff as #276, with Bobby Winkles, John Roseboro, Tom Morgan and Jimmie Reese alongside him. Salty Parker's nickname came from his boyhood job in an East St. Louis store. The owner named the future baseball coach for his habit of eating the shop's salted peanuts.
In 1975 Morgan became the San Diego Padres' pitching coach. He had thrown 1,023 1/3 major league innings over twelve seasons that ended in 1963. His 1974 Topps appearance is the managers-and-coaches card #276, headed by Bobby Winkles and printed with the California Angels. Former Yankees pitcher Tom Morgan advised Tommy John on his throwing motion in 1980 after watching him on television. John credited the adjustment with helping him out of a slump.
By 1974 Reese's fungo bat, one he made himself and flattened on one side, was his trademark with the Angels: he could place balls anywhere on the field and even threw batting practice with it. Nolan Ryan, who arrived in Anaheim the same year Reese did, named his second son Reese. Card #276, in the managers and coaches subset, groups Reese with Bobby Winkles, John Roseboro, Salty Parker and Tom Morgan. Jimmie Reese, the former Yankees infielder and longtime coach, managed the Pacific Coast League's San Diego Padres from 1960 until he resigned partway through 1961, saying he preferred coaching.
