The New York Mets Hall of Records: Buzz Capra

Buzz Capra

Lee William Capra
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 168 lbs.
Born: October 1, 1947 in Chicago, IL
Drafted: 27th round 1969 by the Mets
Departed: purchased by the Atlanta Braves, March 1974

Like so many pitchers throughout history, Buzz must have been left wondering what might have been, if his career had not been cut short by injuries. He is pictured here with Hall of Famer Catfish Hunter on this 1975 Topps card, after they led their respective leagues in Earned Run Average the year before.
