Foster Castleman, a utility IF who played in The Show for 5 years, died 11/9 at age 89.

Castleman came up with the New York Giants during the 1954 season, and remained with the team for the remainder of their time in the Polo Grounds. He called it a career after spending 1958 with the Orioles.

His best season was his busiest season (1956). Playing in 124 games, he smacked 14 HR and drove in 45.
