Herndon was originally selected by the St. Louis Cardinals in the third round of the 1971 Major League Baseball Draft.

Herndon was particularly known for his time with the Tigers. He hit a two-out, two-run home run in Game 1 of the 1984 World Series against the San Diego Padres that proved to be the game winner, and also caught the final out of the Series—a fly ball to left field off the bat of Padres star Tony Gwynn. Three years later, Herndon hit a solo home run on the final day of the season against the Toronto Blue Jays. It was the only run in a 1–0 Detroit victory over the Blue Jays that clinched the American League East division title by two games. Herndon retired with the Tigers and served as the team’s major league hitting coach.
