Second baseman Michael Price, an Oakland native, was drafted by the Pirates but did not sign in June of 1968 (37th round), signed with the St. Louis Cardinals in late 1968 and had two minor league seasons in 1970-71.
You have to say he made the most of those two years, however, as he had 901 plate appearances (200 hits, .273 average) for Cedar Rapids and St. Pete, both in Class A. But he did not return for 1972.
