He pitched two scoreless innings against the Washington Senators in his debut, but in his second appearance, also in relief four days later, the Boston Red Sox reached him for five hits, including a home run by George Scott, and four earned runs. In three Major League innings pitched, Gilliford gave up six hits and one base on balls, with two strikeouts.
He returned to the minor leagues in 1968–1969 before leaving the game.
