Thomas Michael Foley (born September 9, 1959), is an American former professional baseball infielder and coach, who played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Cincinnati Reds, Philadelphia Phillies, Montreal Expos, and Pittsburgh Pirates, from 1983 to 1994. After retiring as a player, Foley served as an on-field coach for the Tampa Bay Rays, from 2002 through 2017, when he moved into the team’s front office.

During the 1985 season, he was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies along with Alan Knicely and a player to be named later (Freddie Toliver) for Bo Diaz and Greg Simpson.

On July 24, 1986, Foley was traded to the Montreal Expos along with Lary Sorensen for Skeeter Barnes and Dan Schatzeder.

After his retirement as a player, Foley was hired in 1996 by the expansion Tampa Bay Rays as a minor league field coordinator. Following the team’s initial June amateur draft, he oversaw the first mini camp in club history. During the summer of 1996, Foley also managed the Rays’ Rookie level team in Butte, Montana. He led the Copper Kings to a 37-35 record and was named the Pioneer League’s Manager of the Year. After four years as field coordinator, Foley became the Rays’ director of minor league operations in 2000. He also managed an Arizona Fall League team, the Maryvale Saguaros, in 2001.

At age 23, Foley made his major league debut on April 9, 1983. In his first start 8 days later, he had a walk and a 2-run double in the first inning before even taking the field.
