Question
Who were the players in 1979 team?  I was givin a post card with all of their signatures, but I can`t make out all the names.  Thank you in advance.  

Answer
Hi Sherry,

  The pitchers on that team were Mike Flanagan, Tippy Martinez, Dennis Martinez, Scott McGregor, Jim Palmer, Don Stanhouse, Sammy Stewart, Tim Stoddard, and Steve Stone. The catchers were Rick Dempsey and Dave Scaggs. The infielders were Mark Belanger, Rich Dauer, Doug DeCinces, Kiko Garcia, Eddie Murray, Billy Smith, and Lee May. The outfielders were Benny Ayala, Al Bumbry, Terry Crowley, Pat Kelly, John Lowenstein, Gary Roenicke, and Ken Singleton. Of course the roster changed constantly during the season but this is the post season roster that lost in the 1979 World Series in 7 games to the Pittsburgh Pirates. I hope this helps and thanks for asking.
