About Larry Harlow
Baltimore remained Harlow's team on 1979 Topps #314 after he recorded 112 hits and 14 steals in 1978. On June 3, 1979, the Orioles traded him to California for Floyd Rayford and cash. The Angels needed an outfielder after Rick Miller was injured.

His ninth-inning double off Don Stanhouse won Game 3 of the 1979 ALCS for the Angels, scoring Brian Downing for a 4-3 victory over his former club. Harlow batted .276 with 4 home runs for California in 1980. After his final major-league season in 1981, he played for Japan's Yakult Swallows in 1982.
