1976 Topps #233 Grant Jackson
About Grant Jackson
Jackson's 1976 Topps #233 shows him with the Orioles, the club he had pitched for since 1971. In 1975 he went 4-3 with a 3.35 ERA and 7 saves out of the bullpen. After his June 13 outing left him 1-1 with a 5.12 ERA, he went to the Yankees on June 15 in a trade that also moved Ken Holtzman and Doyle Alexander. He pitched in the World Series that October.
Grant Jackson was a left-handed pitcher who spent eighteen seasons in the majors, debuting with the Philadelphia Phillies in 1965 and finishing with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1982. Signed out of Fostoria, Ohio by Phillies scout Tony Lucadello, he earned his only All-Star selection in 1969 as a Phillies starter. After a trade to the Baltimore Orioles he became a relief specialist, going 8-0 with a 1.90 ERA in 1973. A mid-season 1976 trade sent him to the New York Yankees, and he later helped Pittsburgh win the 1979 World Series, picking up the win in Game Seven. He also pitched for the Montreal Expos and Kansas City Royals. His repertoire featured a sinking fastball, a slider, a curveball and a changeup.
