Timeline

1953

Eugene Richards Jr. (born September 29, 1953) is an American former Major League Baseball (MLB) outfielder.

1975

He was the first player selected (by the Padres) in the 1975 January Major League Baseball Draft.

He threw and batted left-handed, stood 6 ft tall and weighed 175 lb.

Richards played two seasons (1975–1976) of minor league baseball.

In his first pro season, spent with the Class A Reno Silver Sox, he led the 1975 California League in hits (191 in 134 games played), runs (148), stolen bases (85) and batting average (.381).

Reno won the California League championship and Richards was named the circuit's Most Valuable Player.

1976

Promoted all the way to the Triple-A Hawaii Islanders in 1976, he led the Pacific Coast League in hits (173) and batted .331.

1977

He played eight seasons in the Majors, from 1977 until 1984, for the San Diego Padres and San Francisco Giants.

As a rookie with San Diego in 1977, he set a modern-day MLB rookie single-season record for stolen bases.

In 1977, he made his major league debut with San Diego and set a then modern-day MLB rookie record with 56 stolen bases during the season, surpassing the previous mark of 49 set by Rollie Zeider in 1910 and tied by Sonny Jackson in 1966.

He finished the season batting .290, and finished third in the voting for the National League Rookie of the Year Award.

1980

In 1980, Richards was tied for 22nd place in MVP voting after he led the league in singles with 151, and set a then-Padres single-season record with 194 hits, broken by Tony Gwynn in 1984.

Richards held then-Padres career records for triples (63) and steals (242), also broken by Gwynn.
