His stats are here:

Given that he was called up in September and pitched only 2 games (0-1, 1S), chances are he was just another rookie filling out the roster toward the end of the season.

HE WAS 1 FOR 1 HITTING BUT IT WAS AN IMPORTANT HIT FOR THE FACT THAT IT WAS THE LAST HIT FOR AN AMERICAN LEAGUE PITCHER BEFORE THE DH RULE. HIS ROOMATE BLOOMBERG GOT THE FIRST HIT OF A DH THE FOLLOWING YEAR IN 73. CHAD HOLLAND PS HIS SON
