Glenn Beckert was traded on 11/7/73 for Jerry Morales (who appears on his card as a Padre with a Cubs border). I guess November is too late in the year for airbrushing (unless it’s a Traded card).
AKA Cito Gaston, former manager of the Toronto Blue Jays.
No relation to Stephen Colbert.
I’ve always thought of this guy’s name as “grief”, as in “Oh, good grief!” Now that I look at it, if it’s a German name then it would be pronounced with a vowel that rhymes with “eye”…. “Gr-eye-f”. Anybody know how he pronounces his name?
