#76T - Tim Lollar


What a card: Tim Lollar came to the White Sox in a trade with the Padres that sent pitcher LaMarr Hoyt to San Diego. The Padres also shipped infielder Luis Salazar, pitcher Bill Long and a young Ozzie Guillen to the White Sox in that Dec. 6, 1984 trade.

How'd that go: Lollar appeared in just 18 games for the White Sox in 1985 before he was dealt to the Red Sox in mid July for outfielder Reid Nichols.


Backatya: If those 1887 rules were still in effect in 2004, Barry Bonds would've had 367 hits that year.


Back-to-back: Lollar's flagship and Traded cards showcase his mustache, which debuted in 1984.

The flagship card is No. 13 in the set and was originally blogged on Feb. 7, 2012.
