NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1977 NYLS NYMAN

On the blog today, how about a "not so missing" 1977 card for former Chicago White Sox outfielder Nyls Nyman?

Well here you go:

Nyman appeared in only eight games for Chicago in 1976, going 2-for-15 at the plate with two runs scored and a run batted in.

This was after a season of 1975 that saw him see the most action of any of his four Big League campaigns when he played in 106 games, hitting .226 with 74 hits over 327 at-bats, setting career highs across the board.

He would follow up the brief 1976 action with a single game in 1977 in what turned out to be the last game of his career, going 0-1 at the plate as a pinch-hitter.

All told, Nyman finished his career with a .238 average with 85 hits over 357 at-bats in 120 games, with 43 runs scored and 33 runs batted in.

 

NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1978 NYLS NYMAN

Here’s a 1978 “not really missing” card for former Chicago White Sox outfielder Nyls Nyman, who appeared in a single game during the 1977 season, his last game as a Big Leaguer:

Nyman capped-off a brief four-year Major League career which really encompassed the 1975 season when he played in 106 games. That’s 106 of the lifetime 120 games he played in his entire tenure in the Majors.
Originally up for five games in 1974, he then played eight games in 1976 before that last single game in 1977.
In that game he went 0-1 at the plate before returning to the Minor Leagues for the rest of the season, where he’d remain for another two seasons before retiring for good at the end of 1979.
All told, Nyman finished his career with a .238 average with 85 hits over 357 at-bats in 120 games, with 43 runs scored and 33 runs batted in.
