1976 Topps #469 Rawly Eastwick
About Rawly Eastwick
Eastwick was a rookie in 1975 who went 5-3 with a 2.60 ERA in 58 games. Recalled from Indianapolis in mid-May, he ended a 2-1 game at Shea Stadium on July 24 by striking out Dave Kingman on three fastballs, and he tied for third in the National League Rookie of the Year voting. His Cincinnati Reds card is #469.
Rawly Eastwick was a right-handed relief pitcher who saved 22 games as a rookie for the 1975 Cincinnati Reds and led the National League with 26 more in 1976. A third-round Reds draft pick in 1969 out of Haddonfield, New Jersey, he debuted on September 12, 1974, and the first batter he faced was Hank Aaron. He won two games and saved a third in the 1975 World Series, and in 1976 he took the Rolaids Relief Man Award and Fireman of the Year honors as Cincinnati swept the Yankees. A contract dispute sent him to St. Louis for Doug Capilla on June 15, 1977, and that December he signed a five-year deal with the Yankees. The Yankees traded him to the Phillies on June 14, 1978, for Jay Johnstone and Bobby Brown. He pitched for Kansas City in 1980 and the Cubs in 1981. Away from the mound he painted landscapes and still lifes in pastels and watercolors, and once gave Johnny Bench one of his works as a wedding present.
