1976 Topps #110 Carlos May
About Carlos May
May played 128 games for the 1975 White Sox. He hit .271 with 8 home runs and 53 RBI. Manager Chuck Tanner moved him to first base on a part-time basis, mostly to save wear, and he played 63 games there against 46 in the outfield. Card #110 in the 1976 Topps set shows him with Chicago. On May 18, 1976, the Yankees acquired him for Ken Brett and Rich Coggins.
Carlos May spent ten major league seasons, 1968-1977, almost entirely with the Chicago White Sox before finishing with the New York Yankees and California Angels. A first-round pick out of Birmingham, Alabama's A. H. Parker High School, the left-handed-hitting outfielder and first baseman broke in with Chicago in September 1968 and was the starting left fielder in 1969, making the American League All-Star team twice. A military accident in August 1969, when a mortar he was cleaning discharged and partially amputated his right thumb, threatened to end his career, but he returned to play through 1977, adapting his swing and grip. Traded to the Yankees in 1976, he reached the World Series that year. He finished with a .274 average, 90 home runs and 536 RBIs, then played four more seasons in Japan for the Nankai Hawks. He later worked for the U.S. Postal Service and as a community relations representative for the White Sox.
