Johnston’s MLB career consisted of 63 games over three seasons (1979–1981), playing for the San Francisco Giants and the Minnesota Twins. He made his debut for the Giants in 1979, famously entering his first game as a pinch-runner for the legendary Willie McCovey.
Johnston was a much bigger force in the minors than the majors. In 1979 with the Triple-A Phoenix Giants, he batted nearly .300 with 10 triples and 10 home runs, showcasing the “power-speed” potential that earned him his call-up.
After his stint with the Twins ended in 1981, Johnston took his talents overseas. He played the 1982 season in Japan for the Hanshin Tigers, where he rediscovered some of his power, hitting 10 home runs in 104 games.
