#156: Tom Spencer

Tom Spencer

Tom Spencer played one year in the Majors - 1978. Once again, a boatload of players who played with my "Big 3" on this team. However I'm intrigued by 3 players who careers ended in 1990...

I) Tom Spencer --> Thad Bosley, Chet Lemon, Claudell Washington

II) Bosley --> '90 Rangers
II) Lemon --> '90 Tigers
II) Washington --> '90 Angels
II) Washington --> '90 Yankees

Tough choice here...I'm going to try Chet first, because he was a 3 time All-Star and to be honest, I liked the little story the page's sponsor posted.

II) Lemon --> '90 Tigers --> Tony Phillips, Scott Aldred
      III) Aldred --> '93 Expos
      III) Phillips --> '99 Athletics

1. Tom Spencer played for the 1978 Chicago White Sox with Chet Lemon.
2. Chet Lemon played for the 1990 Detroit Tigers with Tony Phillips.
3. Tony Phillips played for the 1999 Oakland Athletics with Matt Stairs!
