Joe Lahoud

Joseph Michael Lahoud (born April 14, 1947) is an American former professional baseball player.

He played all or part of eleven seasons in Major League Baseball, primarily as an outfielder and designated hitter, for the Boston Red Sox (1968–71), Milwaukee Brewers (1972–73), California Angels (1974–76), Texas Rangers (1976) and Kansas City Royals (1977–78).

Though optioned to the minor leagues during spring training in 1968, the Red Sox recalled Lahoud from the Louisville Colonels of the Class AAA International League at the start of the 1968 season as Tony Conigliaro struggled with his recovery from an eye injury.

[6] Lahoud was part of a ten-player blockbuster that sent him, George Scott, Jim Lonborg, Ken Brett, Billy Conigliaro and Don Pavletich from the Red Sox to the Brewers for Tommy Harper, Marty Pattin, Lew Krausse Jr. and minor-league outfielder Pat Skrable on October 10, 1971.
