Playing career
He played all or part of five seasons in the majors, between 1971 and 1976, for the Chicago White Sox and St. Louis Cardinals. He played primarily at shortstop, especially early in his career, but his defense was poor, and he later appeared more as a second baseman or third baseman. He was traded from the White Sox to the Cardinals for Buddy Bradford and Greg Terlecky on December 12, 1975.[2]
