1978 Topps Baseball #316 - Henry Cruz

• Henry Cruz played in his final major league season in 1978. Cruz split time between AAA Iowa and the Chicago White Sox. Henry was a pinch hitter in April and then saw some playing time in the outfield from May-July. Cruz was sent to the minors at the end of July and that was it for his major league career.
• Cruz played in AAA from 1979-1981 and then played in the Mexican League from 1982-1985.
