Playing career, in brief: Skip Jutze was a good defensive catcher who didn't hit much, in part due to some injuries over his six seasons with the Cardinals, Astros and Mariners. His biggest highlight was hitting the first grand slam in Mariners history in 1977. Overall in 254 games he hit .215 with 3 HR and 51 RBI.
Post playing career, in brief: For decades Jutze has been working at the Developmental Disabilities Resource Center of Jefferson County, CO. He is the center's marketing director, in addition to working full-time with the center's clients.
My collection: I have six of his cards, from 1973 to 1978. I would be interested in trading for 1976 O-Pee-Chee #489.
