1977 Topps #63 Tito Fuentes
About Tito Fuentes
In 1976 Fuentes batted .263 for the San Diego Padres and played 127 games at second base. After that second season in San Diego he left the Padres as a free agent, though his 1977 Topps card, #63, still carried the club's name.
Rigoberto "Tito" Fuentes was a Cuban-born switch-hitting infielder who spent nine of his 13 major league seasons with the San Francisco Giants. He played for Cuba at the 1961 Amateur World Series alongside Bert Campaneris and signed with the Giants before the 1962 season. His major league debut came on August 18, 1965. Fuentes sometimes wore a headband outside his cap and approached the plate holding his bat by the barrel, tapping the handle on the plate before flipping and catching it. He joined the Giants' Spanish-language radio broadcasts in 1981, stayed through 1992 and returned as an analyst in 2004. The Hispanic Heritage Baseball Museum inducted him into its Hall of Fame in 2002.
