Rob Gardner

Richard Frank Gardner
Batted: Right
Threw: Left
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 176 lbs.
Born: December 19, 1944 in Binghamton, NY
Signed: 1963 by the Minnesota Twins
Acquired: selected from the Twins in the First-Year Draft, December 1963

Rob came up with the Mets in 1965, then changed teams seven times in the next seven years, averaging less than 15 games per stop. Talk about a journeyman! He's shown here on 1967 Topps with the Mets. He didn't appear for them that year, of course.
