Terrible Card Tuesday: 1978 Tony Muser

T Muser

I guess it’s appropriate that most of these Terrible Tuesday cards come at the beginning or at the end of player’s careers.  That’s the case with this 1978 Tony Muser card.  It’s at the tail end of his nine year career when he finished up with the Brewers.

In 1978, he went 4 for 30 (.133) with a double and a triple.  He drove in five runs and walked three times.

Muser only received six hit numbers so you would have to roll double numbers for a chance to get a hit.  He got 2-6-8-8-9-9.  In addition, he has three 14s. 

With 34 plate appearances (pretty close to the 36 result numbers on the APBA card), a lot of numbers are easy to calculate for his card.  One 6 for his one double, one 2 for his triple, three 14s for his three walks etc. 

Ugly numbers:  15-37, 25-41, 44-9

If I remember correctly, Muser was always a defensive whiz at first.  APBA didn’t shy away from giving him a 1B-4 even in his last year.

I am an IT consultant by day and an APBA media mogul by night. My passions are baseball (specifically Illini baseball), photography and of course, APBA. I have been fortunate to be part of the basic game Illowa APBA League since 1980 as well as the BBW Boys of Summer APBA League since 2014. I am slogging through a 1966 NL replay and hope to finish before I die.
