1978 Topps #382 Joe Lahoud
About Joe Lahoud
Lahoud spent 1977 with the Kansas City Royals, after Boston, Milwaukee, California and Texas. He hit .262 with two home runs in 34 games and batted once in the ALCS, which the Yankees won 3-2. His Royals card is #382 in the 1978 Topps set; he played 13 games for Kansas City in 1978, the last on May 24.
Joe Lahoud was a left-handed-hitting outfielder from Danbury, Connecticut, the son of a Lebanese-American hatter and an Irish-American mother. Signed by Red Sox scout Bots Nekola in 1965, he climbed through Winston-Salem before an eye-catching spring training 1968 earned him a big-league look, filling in for the injured Tony Conigliaro. Over eleven seasons he played for Boston, Milwaukee, California, Texas and Kansas City, spending most of his Red Sox years as a fourth outfielder squeezed behind Carl Yastrzemski, Reggie Smith and Conigliaro. He hit three home runs in a single game against the Twins in June 1969, off three different pitchers. A blockbuster ten-player trade sent him to Milwaukee after the 1971 season, and he later moved on through California, Texas and Kansas City before his career ended in 1978. He finished with a .223 average, 65 home runs and 218 RBIs across 791 games.
