1977 Topps #100 Joe Morgan
About Joe Morgan
Morgan hit .320 with 27 home runs and 111 RBI for Cincinnati in 1976. He also scored 113 runs and stole 60 bases. He then went 5-for-15 with a home run in the World Series against the Yankees. His Reds card in the 1977 Topps set is #100, with the All-Star designation on its front.
Joe Morgan played second base through a 22-year major-league career, collecting 2,517 hits, 268 home runs and 689 stolen bases. Born in Bonham, Texas, he moved to Oakland at five and studied business at Oakland City College before Houston signed him in 1962. His 5-foot-7 stature brought him the nickname "Little Joe." Teammate Nellie Fox suggested that he flap his back elbow to keep it raised while batting, a habit Morgan retained throughout his career. With Cincinnati, he won consecutive National League Most Valuable Player awards in 1975 and 1976 and five Gold Gloves from 1973 through 1977. His ninth-inning single drove home Ken Griffey with the winning run in Game Seven of the 1975 World Series. Morgan returned to Houston as a free agent in 1980, then played for San Francisco, Philadelphia and Oakland. He retired in 1984 and began broadcasting Reds games the next year, later working with Jon Miller on ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball. Morgan entered the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1990, his first year of eligibility.
