Change of scenery, change of career....on
a holding pattern in the Astro’s system....never fully broke through getting collect
scattered Abs showing glimpses of power but anemic batting...Terrific Royals
debut: 2nd in AL RBIs with 100, a surprising .298 BA....another
steal for the fledgling Royals and considered one of worst all time trades by the
Astros...His encore in 1973 featured the league best on base %.....after an off
season in 1974 rebounded nicely in 1975 with career best in home runs and
RBIs....spent two more years in KC....sold to 2nd year Toronto Blue
Jays as the Royals made way for Sports Illustrated cover cursed Clint
Hurdle.... Mayberry continued his home run hitting ways by slugging 92 in six
seasons....last team; he was picked up by the Yankees in their annual veteran hunt for
reserve players 1982.
