He was better defensively than his one 1973 card. Card viewer shows
1975 C3(-1)5, 1b304 4L
1976, although not superadvanced C3(-1)5 1b308 2L
1977 C4(+1)7, 1b305, 3b441 2R
1978 1b312 C4(0)3, 3b465 5L
1979, although not superadvanced, C3(-1)1, 1b320 3L
I nominated the 1979 Gene Tenace card for the 24.1 add (.263 BA, .403 OBP, .445 SLG, .848 OPS). Defensively he threw out almost 50% of SB attempts with only 1 error. This was after he left Oakland and it would give the Padres a far better option at C than they currently have.
