Jim Foor, Tim Hosley, Paul Jata Tigers were going full

hold for several years albeit in an exclusive reserve role…Foor show up for a
few innings over three years ending with a 1-0 record….Jata hit .230 in
1972….could not break the Tiger outfield…Hosley has value as a third to second
string catcher….started with Tigers, then shifted over to Oakland, got most of
his playing time with the Cubs, then another trip to Oakland….hit over 200 home
runs in the minors….had 12 in 368 major league at bats….appeared last big
league uniform 1981…released during the strike that year….passed away 2014.
