1977 Topps #584 Ed Goodson


About Ed Goodson
Goodson's first Los Angeles season, 1976, was spent largely off the bench. He made 63 pinch-hitting appearances among his 83 games, played 16 at third base and three at first, and finished at .229 with three home runs, four doubles and 17 RBI in 118 at-bats. Topps gave him card #584 the following year.
Ed Goodson was a left-handed hitting first and third baseman who played eight seasons, 1970 to 1977, for the San Francisco Giants, Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Dodgers. The Giants made him the third overall pick of the June 1968 draft out of East Tennessee State, where he played shortstop. He hit .260 with 30 home runs and 170 RBI in 515 major league games, and knee and finger injuries cut into several seasons. The Giants sent him to Atlanta in June 1975, and the Dodgers acquired him that winter, after which he worked mostly as a pinch hitter. His last major league at-bat was a strikeout against Mike Torrez in Game 6 of the 1977 World Series. A fractured skull from a pitch while with Portland in 1978 ended his playing days. He became head baseball coach at Grayson County High School in Virginia in 1982, the year of his induction into the East Tennessee State athletic hall of fame, and entered the Pulaski County Baseball Hall of Fame in 2009.
