1976 Topps #324 Jim Bibby
About Jim Bibby
Cleveland acquired Bibby from Texas on June 13, 1975, along with Jackie Brown, Rick Waits and $100,000, for Gaylord Perry. With the Indians, he worked with pitching coach Harvey Haddix on his delivery. In 1976 he went 13-7 with a 3.20 ERA. He made 21 starts in 34 appearances and threw three shutouts. His 1976 Topps card, #324, listed him with Cleveland.
Jim Bibby was a 6-foot-5, 235-pound right-hander whose fastball drew comparisons to Nolan Ryan's, and who won 111 major league games between 1972 and 1984 for the Cardinals, Rangers, Indians and Pirates. He reached the majors at 27: a New York Mets signee out of Fayetteville State in 1965, he spent two years as an Army truck driver in Vietnam and missed all of 1970 after spinal fusion surgery. On July 30, 1973 he no-hit the Oakland Athletics 6-0, striking out 13, the first no-hitter in Rangers history. His best year came with Pittsburgh in 1980, when he went 19-6 and pitched in the All-Star Game, one year after the Pirates won the 1979 World Series. On May 19, 1981 he threw a one-hit shutout of the Braves, retiring the final 27 batters after a leadoff single. After his playing days he coached pitchers in the Lynchburg, Virginia organization for 15 years, and the Hillcats retired his number 26. His younger brother Henry Bibby played in the NBA.
