Woodie Held's card does not reflect his stats for the 1969 season.

All three of Held's HRs that season were off of right handed pitchers (Brabender, Earl Wilson and Palmer), and he had 43 Plate Appearances against RHP that season, so against RHP, he averaged a homerun in every 14 plate appearances. In the previous '69 season, Held would often be a starter against RHPs and be a leader in the number of HRs.
In his current card, he has an N rating against both LHP and RHP, and a home run reading in each column.

I have to admit that Held's use as a full time player was unrealistic in the previous '69 game.
