1976 Topps #460 Cesar Cedeno
About Cesar Cedeno
Card #460 shows Cedeno with the Houston Astros after a 1975 season in which he played 131 games and batted .288. He hit 13 home runs, drove in 63 runs and won another Gold Glove. His 50 stolen bases continued a run of seasons with 50 or more that began in 1972.
Cesar Cedeno was a center fielder who played 17 major league seasons, 1970 to 1986, most of them with the Houston Astros, then the Reds, Cardinals and Dodgers. Signed out of Santo Domingo at 16 by scouts Pat Gillick and Tony Pacheco, he joined the Astros at 19 and combined power, speed and defense. He hit 20 home runs and stole 50 bases in three straight seasons, 1972 through 1974, which no other player has done. He won Gold Gloves from 1972 to 1976, made four All-Star teams and finished with 2,087 hits, 199 home runs and 550 stolen bases; his 487 steals with Houston are still the Astros career record. Houston manager Leo Durocher once said that at 22 Cedeno was as good as or better than Willie Mays had been at that age. He was traded to Cincinnati for Ray Knight after the 1981 season and reached the 1985 World Series with St. Louis. Houston inducted him into the Astros Hall of Fame in 2020.
