Timeline

1950

Timothy John Foli (born December 6, 1950 ) is an American former professional baseball player, coach and minor league manager.

1968

At age 17, Foli was the first pick in the Major League Baseball Draft in 1968 and went on to be a member of the 1979 World Series champion Pirates.

Foli was known as a fiery player who was a reliable fielder but only an average hitter.

When the New York Mets made Foli the first overall draft pick in the 1968 Major League Baseball Draft, he decided to forgo football for the major leagues.

At age seventeen, Foli started out poorly with the Marion Mets of the Appalachian League.

1969

The following year, while the Mets were on their way to winning the 1969 World Series, Foli hit over .300 for their high Class A minor league team, the Visalia Mets of the California League.

1970

He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a shortstop for the New York Mets, Montreal Expos, San Francisco Giants, Pittsburgh Pirates, California Angels and New York Yankees from 1970 to 1985.

In 1970, Foli posted decent numbers for the Triple-A Tidewater Tides and the Mets called the 19-year-old up to the majors on September 11.

At the time, he was the fourth youngest player in the majors, behind César Cedeño, Balor Moore and Don Gullett.

In his second game, Foli started at third base, picked up two hits and drove in a late run as the Mets defeated the St. Louis Cardinals.

The defending champions faded the rest of the way and missed the playoffs.

1971

Foli spent all of 1971 with the Mets, fighting for playing time at second base and third base.

On May 9, he had an RBI triple and a three-run double in the first two innings for his first four-RBI game.

1972

Foli's defensive low occurred on September 9, 1972, when he committed three errors in one inning, leading to three runs in Montreal's 8–3 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates at Jarry Park.

Foli was born in Culver City, California, and attended Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, California.

He was a high school star in both baseball and football and was offered a football scholarship by the University of Southern California.

Before the 1972 season, the Mets packaged Foli with fellow young prospects Ken Singleton and Mike Jorgensen and sent them to the Montreal Expos for star outfielder Rusty Staub.

Foli became a mainstay at shortstop in Montreal for the next five seasons.

1973

Foli was popular in Montreal, as evidenced on July 8, 1973, when Houston Astros left fielder Bob Watson slid hard into Foli at second base trying to break up a double play, breaking Foli's jaw.

When Watson returned to left field in the next half-inning, the Montreal fans at Jarry Park hurled debris at him.

Foli missed the next month of the season.

1976

Although Foli, Singleton and Jorgensen played well in Montreal, the Expos never posted a winning record until after Foli was gone and even lost 107 games in 1976.

Foli's offensive numbers in five seasons with Montreal were representative of his whole career.

He batted between .238 and .264 each season, only once slugging over .300, and only once reaching .300 in on-base percentage.

1976 was the only offensive season that stood out for Foli, as he posted career highs with 36 doubles (fifth-highest in the N.L.), six home runs and a .366 slugging average.

On April 21, 1976, Foli hit a single, double and triple against the Chicago Cubs before the game was suspended.

When the game was resumed the next day, Foli hit a home run to complete the first cycle in Montreal Expos history.

In addition, Foli's cycle was the first "natural cycle" (where the single, double, triple and home run are hit in that sequence) in almost a decade.

1977

1977 was the beginning of Foli's time as a major league journeyman.

In his final nine seasons, Foli spent seven different stints with six different franchises.

1979

Foli compiled a .333 batting average in the 1979 postseason, contributing to Pittsburgh's last World Championship.

It would prove to be his last four-RBI game until 1979.

In 97 games, his batting average was .226, with both his on-base percentage and slugging average below .300.

1980

Defensively, Foli led league shortstops in fielding percentage in 1980 and 1982.

He led the National League in double plays twice, in total chances twice, and in putouts once.

1982

Foli was a free swinger, especially in 1982 when he walked only 14 times, the lowest total ever for 150 or more games played (Ozzie Guillén broke Foli's notorious record three years later).

His free swinging did not aim for the fences, however, as he averaged less than two home runs per season.

His lack of power, combined with a lack of running speed (averaging approximately a stolen base every 20 games) resulted in Foli typically batting either second in the lineup or near the bottom.

Although he accumulated few walks, Foli was also one of the most difficult to strike out, posting the league's best strikeout percentage three times and finishing in the top ten five times.

He was an accomplished bunter, finishing in the league top ten in sacrifice hits eight times including an American League-leading 26 in 1982.
