Tony Freitas question
Posted By: Nate
Hello everyone. I have a nice collection of Tony Freitas cards, and have a question about all the cards that exist of him. He first broke into the PCL with Sacramento in about 1928. He was then bought by Connie Mack of the Phila. Athletics in 1932, until he was sold to Cincy where he played from 1934 to 1936. Freitas then went back home to the PCL, once again dawning the Solons uniform. He played there through the 1940's, and had many sucessful and prosperous seasons in Sacramento. He spent the last year of his career playing for the Stockton Ports in about 1951, or so. "Twenty-game Tony" has the distinction for having the most victories in the minor leagues by a lefthanded pitcher. He also single-handedly won Sacramento's only PCL championship by pitching both games of a double-header- he was my grandfather's idol while he was growing up. |

Hey there Blacksoxfan, I'm about to fly home to California for winter Break in a few days, so I'll definitley send you some scans of my freitas cards. As far as I know, the '29 is his rookie card, or "prookie"- depending on who you talk to. I have what I believe to be a 1931 zeenut Freitas, but I could very well be wrong- it's the same photo as the '30. Thanks for showing some interest! |

Mark Macrae is the person to ask. I am sure he has a checklist of all his cards. |

also appears in the 1932 Zeenuts set. I only show the R314 set for big league sets, but I'll look again. |

Concerning his Zeenut cards, Tony is in the 1929, 1930, 1931, 1932 and the 1937/38 sets. His 1937/38 card is by far his most difficult to locate Zeenut card. |
