1985 tim lollar

the padres traded tim lollar to the white sox in december of 1984 in the lamarr hoyt deal.  here's his 1985 o-pee-chee card:

here's the topps front:

now the o-pee-chee back:

and the topps back:

i think derek lowe got in trouble for hitting on a dodger reporter during his time in la, but he was married at the time.  looks like lollar played it above board.  anyway, lollar (lollar, lollar get your adverbs here) appeared in just 13 games for the white sox in 1985 before they shipped him off to the red sox.  in boston, he finished the season in the bullpen although he won 2 of his last 3 starts, including a complete game 5-hitter against the indians.

lollar was back with the bosox in1986, pitching in 32 games (1 start) and was 2-0 with a 6.91 era.  he was left off of the postseason roster, and then released during spring training in 1987.

voici à vous, 1985 tim lollar!
