Ron Herbel - Trade To The Padres

Trade To The Padres

1965 was Herbel's best season with the Giants. If it could be said that he had a best season with the bat, it would be 1967 when Herbel had three hits, two of which were doubles, two walks, three successful bunts and struck out only fourteen times for a .107 batting average. It was also Herbel's first real season as a reliever. Though he made eleven starts, he made 31 appearances out of the bullpen, earning one save. Over the next two seasons, Herbel made only six starts. Following the 1969 season, Herbel was traded with Bob Barton and Bobby Etheridge to the San Diego Padres for Frank Reberger.

Famous quotes containing the word trade:

    A nose, kind sir! Sure, Mother Nature,
    With all her freaks, ne’er formed this feature.
    If such were mine, I’d try and trade it,
    And swear the gods had never made it.
    Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
