Pepe Mangual was born on Friday, May 23, 1952, in Ponce, Puerto Rico. Mangual was 20 years old when he broke into the big leagues on September 6, 1972, with the Montreal Expos. His biographical data, year-by-year hitting stats, fielding stats, pitching stats (where applicable), career totals, uniform numbers, salary data and miscellaneous items-of-interest are presented by Baseball Almanac on this comprehensive Pepe Mangual baseball stats page.
"The speedy Puerto Rican was the Expos' everyday centerfielder in 1975 and hit only .245, but he walked 74 times, scored 84 runs, and stole 33 bases. He tied a ML record on August 11 when he struck out five times in a nine-inning game. Mangual was hitting better in 1976 (.260) when he was traded to the Mets, but he lost his stroke in New York (.186 the rest of the way) and was out of the majors after one more year. It was while Mangual was with New York that Mets-beat writer Jack Lang said of him, 'Pepe Mangual can drop anything he gets his hands on.' His older brother wasAngel Mangual of the A's." - Historian Sheldon Fairchild Stewart (BaseballLibrary.com, The Ballplayers, 2006, Source)
