Steve Foucault

Pitching Coach

The Otters’ 2010 pitching coach is former major league reliever Steve Foucault, now in his 16th season as Wayne Krenchicki’s pitching coach. Selected by the Washington Senators in 43rd round of the 1969 amateur draft, Foucault spent four years with the Texas Rangers before being traded to Detroit for outfielder Willie Horton before the 1977 season. Kansas City claimed Foucault off waivers from the Royals in 1978, his final year in the big leagues.

Foucault, 60, compiled a 35-36 career record in 277 games, earning 52 saves. His career ERA was 3.21. His major league managers included Whitey Herzog (1973 and 1978), Del Wilbur (1973), Billy Martin (1973 through 1975), Frank Lucchesi (1975 and 1976), and Ralph Houk (1977 and 1978).
