1977 Topps #349 Jim Holt


About Jim Holt
By the time card #349 reached packs, Holt had already played his last major league game. The Oakland name on the card reflects his time with the A's from 1974 to 1976, which included one hit in three at-bats in the 1975 ALCS, a series Boston swept 3-0. His big-league career closed with 428 hits.
Jim Holt was a left-handed-hitting outfielder and first baseman who played all nine of his major league seasons, 1968 to 1976, for the Minnesota Twins and Oakland Athletics. He grew up in Graham, North Carolina, enlisted in the Army in 1963 and played ball while stationed in Germany before the Kansas City Athletics signed him in 1966. Minnesota took him in the Rule 5 draft after he hit .312 for Peninsula in 1967, and he debuted on April 17, 1968. His best season was 1973, when he hit .297 with 11 home runs and 58 RBIs in 132 games. Traded to Oakland in August 1974, he became a pinch-hitter and defensive replacement, and his two-run pinch single in Game Four helped Oakland to a 5-2 win over the Dodgers in that year's World Series. He finished with a .265 average, 19 home runs and 177 RBIs in 707 games, then played in the Mexican League in 1977.
