Anthony Johnson led the 1980 Southern League with 60 stolen bases. He played 2 games with the Montreal Expos during the 1981 pennant race, one as a pinch-runner, and the second in the outfield on the last day of the season, after the Expos had clinched a post-season spot. He was selected by the Toronto Blue Jays in the Rule V draft following the season and spent all of 1982 with the Jays, mainly as a pinch-runner and defensive substitute in the outfield.
