Oriole Player Postcards Eddie Watt



Another example of my Oriole postcard collection. This is a late 60's issue of reliever Eddie Watt. Eddie, an Iowa native, debuted as a starter for the O's in 1966 but quickly was transformed into a major cog in the Orioles' bullpen committee that served them so well during the 'glory days' of the franchise. His career numbers are pretty impressive: a record of 38-36 in 411 games pitched, 240 games finished, 80 saves, and an ERA of 2.91.
