I remember the New York TV sports guy Bill Mazer reporting that Foster was claiming that he was let go for racial reasons, and Mazer pointing out that his replacement, Kevin Mitchell, was also black. That doesn't necessarily prove anything--but the fact that Foster only got into 15 more games kind of settles things.Brett Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15909286892005353279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5342310663064800554.post-35062287195108290662018-04-12T22:10:38.070-05:002018-04-12T22:10:38.070-05:00Once I realized what the theme of the post was, my...Once I realized what the theme of the post was, my first thought was "Oh, like Tim McCarver with the Expos"... and then, lo and behold...<br /><br />I'll admit, I have a post I've been meaning to finish for something like a year that starts off with me finding out that Tim McCarver was with the Expos. Maybe I should finish that.<br /><br />I was also about to say "What, no mention of Jose Bautista with the Mets?" but I forgot he was only a Met on paper: The Royals traded him to the Mets and the Mets flipped him to the Pirates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5342310663064800554.post-86956062585529256162018-04-12T21:06:35.459-05:002018-04-12T21:06:35.459-05:00WHAT?

Also, in reading this post I had absolutely zero clue that Foster was ever with the ChiSox, McCovey was with the A's, and most bizarre, McCarver with the Expos.
