Blue collar....career long Phillie utility man....jack
of all trades...never caught on a regular...best ever was appearing 87
MLB games....once called up in 1969 stayed with the Phillies until 1977....product
of Toledo Ohio...Set a fielding record by taking 18 chances at second base in
1971 against the Padres....best batting average on the 1972 Phillies....consistency

fishing, and all sports....achieved a bachelor's of education degree from Ohio University in off season.

Harmon is one of 3 or 4 players to have a 10-year MLB career, and play ONLY for the Phillies.
ReplyDeleteMike Schmidt and Larry Christensen are the others.
(Ryan Howard is in that group also, at least for now.)
Yes those 10 year career, one club guys are exceedingly rare.
