1976 Topps #322 Glenn Abbott
About Glenn Abbott
Abbott's 1976 Topps #322 pictures him with the Athletics after a 1975 season in which he went 5-5 with a 4.25 ERA. He made 30 appearances, 15 of them starts, and struck out 51. He pitched 114 1/3 innings, completed three games and threw one shutout. In the ALCS against Boston he pitched one inning, and Oakland lost three games to none.
Glenn Abbott, a 6-foot-6 right-hander from Little Rock, Arkansas, was drafted by the Oakland Athletics in the eighth round in June 1969 and signed straight out of high school. He debuted July 29, 1973, starting against the Texas Rangers, and pitched for Oakland through 1976. In the last game of the 1975 season he threw the sixth inning of the first four-pitcher combined no-hitter in major league history, between Vida Blue and Paul Lindblad. Seattle took him in the November 1976 expansion draft, and he stayed longer than any other member of the original Mariners roster, leading the club in wins in 1977 and 1980 with 12 each. Elbow bone chips and viral meningitis cost him the 1982 season. Detroit bought his contract for $100,000 on August 23, 1983, and released him August 14, 1984. He finished 62-83 with a 4.39 ERA in 248 games. A long minor league pitching-coach career followed in the Mets, Athletics, Padres and Rangers systems.
