- In 1977 Don Baylor split time almost evenly between the outfield and designated hitter. Don also played in a few games at first base. Baylor was one of the big free agent signings by the California Angels after the 1976 season. Joe Rudi and Bobby Grich had injuries and didn't really pay immediate dividends. Baylor was ok in 1977 (but not all that great), but he had a good year in 1978 and an MVP year in 1979. Don was disappointed with himself and was the target of a few boos in Anaheim Stadium toward the end of the 1977 season.
