Longtime member of the Tampa Bay Rays organization, Tom Foley has announced his retirement from the game after 43 years in the game of baseball — 24 seasons with the Rays.
A career that began with Foley being drafted by the Cincinnati Reds in the 7th round of the 1977 draft and eventually making his Major League debut several years later in 1983. During his 13 year playing career, Foley bounced all over the diamond playing myriad positions (and even pitched to two batters in 1989)!
His career saw him employed by the aforementioned Reds, Pittsburgh Pirates, Philadelphia Phillies, and most notably he spent eight seasons with the Montreal Expos.
