A likable power pitcher, Carrithers never found consistency on the ML level. He went 9-1 in Phoenix in 1970 but in two-plus seasons with the Giants was 12-14 as a starter and reliever. Traded to Montreal, he split time between the Expos and Triple-A in 1974 and 1975. He appeared in only seven games for the Twins in 1977 after he was injured in a car accident. (JCA)
