Even though Randy Bobb never played in one game with the Mets he was on a Mets card--a 1971 Rookie Card with Tim Foli. It looked like he showed some promise but his career was cut short for some reason and sadly he died very young in 1982 at the age of 34. He was 1 for 10 in his career with the Cubs in the late 60's; at least he got that one big league hit.

Randy was the unlucky victim of Jerry Koosman's thirteenth and final strikeout that ended the Mets' win over the Cubs in the crucial September series at Shea Stadium in 1969. It was the first of three games in which he appeared that season, all of which the Chicago team lost. Bobb was acquired by the Mets in a trade for J. C. Martin one week before the start of the 1970 season, but never played in the major leagues again.
Sadly, Randy died at 34 years old from injuries suffered in a car accident.
