Pitchers Who Rake: Galen Cisco's Hits

by Bowersbird - 18 cards (Last updated on Jan 22, 2022)

Ok, "rake" is maybe generous. Still, Cisco got 21 hits off 18 different pitchers during his career. Here are the cards from the opposing pitchers.

1. 1961 Topps #63 Jim Kaat

June 27, 1961: Red Sox at Twins

Yep, Cisco's first hit was off a future HOF'er.

2. 1962 Topps #221 Bill Short

April 15, 1962: Red Sox at Orioles

1962 is the year of Galen's rookie card. Love that woodgrain.

3. 1962 Topps #96 Eli Grba

May 18, 1962: Angels at Red Sox

4. 1963 Topps #429 Lew Burdette

April 13, 1963: Mets at Braves

Lew was the 1957 World Series MVP.

5. 1963 Topps #277 Dick Farrell

July 26, 1963: Mets at Colt .45s

Yep, Galen got a hit off the short-lived Houston Colt .45s.

6. 1964 Topps #271 Bob Sadowski

August 2, 1963: Mets at Braves

Bob didn't have a 1963 Topps card, so I went with the next year's card.

7. 1963 Topps #575 Don Cardwell

August 15, 1963: Pirates at Mets

8. 1963 Topps #450 Bob Friend

August 27, 1963: Mets at Pirates

1964 Topps #378 Braves 1964 Rookie Stars (Woody Woodward / Jack Smith) Front

9. 1964 Topps #378 Braves 1964 Rookie Stars (Woody Woodward / Jack Smith)

May 14, 1964: Braves at Mets

Cisco only got a hit against Jack Smith, not Woody. Jack didn't have a solo card for this year, so Woody gets to just sit there and laugh.

10. 1967 Topps #395 Chris Short

June 14, 1964: Mets at Phillies

Somehow, Chris was shorted a Topps card until 1967, so it's the closest I can get to 1964.
