About This Player
Ted Sizemore enjoyed 12 seasons in the Major Leagues and five of those with the St. Louis Cardinals. Sizemore made his debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1969 and won the National League Rookie of the Year award that same year. While Sizemore made his debut as a shortstop, he moved to second base after the Dodgers acquired Maury Wills. He was traded to the Cardinals in 1971 and later traded back to the Dodgers in 1976. Sizemore also spent time with the Cubs and Red Sox before playing his last game in 1980.
About This Card
The cartoon states that "Ted was originally a catcher." By the time of this card, Sizemore had not played any Major League games as a catcher, but he played behind the plate twice for the Dodgers in 1976 and twice again for the Red Sox in 1979.
