1976 SSPC Glenn Adams

 

The card, in brief: This looks like it was a little earlier in the evening than some of the other Giants cards in the set. Adams looks quite happy to show off his bunting form.

Playing career, in brief: After brief appearances as an outfielder for the Giants in 1975 and 1976, Glenn Adams moved to the American League in 1977 with the Twins as a part-time DH and outfielder. He ended his career with a cup of coffee in Toronto in 1982.  In eight major league seasons, he hit .280 with 34 HR and 225 RBI in 661 games.

Post-playing career, in brief:  Adams was a minor league manager for many years but now appears to be retired.

My collection: I have 13 of his cards, from 1976 to 1983. I would be interested in trading for 1982 TCMA Syracuse Chiefs #19.
