1976 Topps #103 Biff Pocoroba
About Biff Pocoroba
Pocoroba backed up behind the plate for Atlanta in 1976, playing 54 games with a .241 average and 14 RBI, and he threw out 34 percent of attempted base stealers. Card #103 is his rookie card, issued after his 67 games as a rookie in 1975.
Biff Pocoroba was a switch-hitting catcher who played his entire ten-season career, 1975 to 1984, for the Atlanta Braves. A 17th-round pick in 1971 out of Canoga Park High School in California, he came up through Wytheville, Greenwood and Savannah, and drew notice in 1975 spring training by throwing out 11 straight would-be base stealers. He debuted April 25, 1975, as a defensive replacement against San Diego. A contact hitter, he finished with more walks (182) than strikeouts (109) and was an All-Star in 1978. He also played third base, and in 1981 he played more games there than behind the plate while Bob Horner was hurt. His one postseason appearance was a 1982 NLCS at-bat in which he grounded out as the Cardinals swept the Braves. His last game was April 20, 1984, with career totals of 596 games, a .257 average and 21 home runs. He later ran a sausage business, Sausage World, in Lilburn, Georgia, with his brothers.
