Tim Lollar is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on March 17, 1956 in Poplar Bluff, Missouri, United States. William Timothy “Tim” Lollar (born on 17 March 1956) was the former pro baseball player. Tim was born in Missouri and was the son of Homer as well as Betty Jean (nee McHenry) Lollar. Tim was graduated from Farmington High School situated in Farmington, Missouri, and Mineral Area College in Flat River, Missouri. Lollar played in all or a portion of seven seasons of Major League Baseball from 1980 until 1986 for the New York Yankees(1980), San Diego Padres (1981-84), Chicago White Sox (1985) and Boston Red Sox (1985-86) predominantly as a pitcher who started.
When the season began in 1982 Lollar got a permanent spot in the rotation that started him indefinitely. He was rewarded by the Padres by racking up a career-high 16 wins, while lowering the ERA down to 3.13. The Padres were honored by being named an Padres’ Opening Day starter in 1983. However, he fell off badly, accumulating 7-12 records and an ERA of 4.61.
Lollar was considered a particularly good hitter for a pitcher, being asked to occasionally pinch-hit, and hitting eight career home runs in four seasons in the National League. He was even called upon to pinch-hit for position players twice while with the American League Red Sox. The first was on August 13, 1985, when he pinch hit for shortstop Jackie Gutiérrez, popping out to third base. The second was on August 12, 1986. Lollar pinch-hit for shortstop Rey Quiñones with two out in the 9th and the tying run on first base. Despite not having batted in a major league game in nearly a year, Lollar singled off Kansas City Royals closer Dan Quisenberry. Unfortunately for the Red Sox, the next batter, Wade Boggs, grounded out to end the game.
Lollar stayed with the White Sox for just a few months before being traded to the Red Sox for outfielder Reid Nichols. In 1986, the Red Sox converted Lollar into a relief pitcher, but Lollar posted a 6.91 ERA while giving up nearly two baserunners per inning. He was released during spring training in 1987. Lollar played that season in the minors, posting a record of 3–4 with an ERA of 5.87 while splitting the year between the Detroit Tigers and St. Louis Cardinals organizations. He retired after the season.
Lollar played the strike-shortened 1981 season split between the rotation that started and the bullpen of the Padres. He posted a record of 2-8 over 24 games, with 11 starts, and an ERA of 6.10.
