Foscue attended Virgil I. Grissom High School in Huntsville, Alabama, where he played baseball.[1] In 2017, his senior year, he hit .318 with six home runs,[2] earning All-State honors.[3] Undrafted in the 2017 Major League Baseball draft, he fulfilled his commitment to play college baseball at Mississippi State University.[4]

In 2018, Foscue's freshman season for the Mississippi State Bulldogs, Foscue appeared in 58 games, batting .241 with three home runs and twenty runs batted in (RBIs).[5] As a sophomore in 2019, he moved from third base to second base[6] and slashed .331/.395/.564 with 14 home runs, sixty RBIs, and 22 doubles over 67 starts.[7][8][9] He earned All-SEC First-Team honors.[10] That summer, he played for the United States collegiate national team.[11][12][13] In 2020, Foscue's junior year, he hit .302 with two home runs and 16 RBIs over 16 games before the college baseball season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[14]

Professional career

The Texas Rangers selected Foscue in the first round, with the 14th overall selection, of the 2020 Major League Baseball draft.[15] He signed with the Rangers on June 19 for a $3.25 million signing bonus.[16] He did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the Minor League Baseball season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[17]

To begin the 2021 season, Foscue was assigned to the Hickory Crawdads of the High-A East.[18] He missed the whole month of June and the beginning of July after suffering a rib injury.[19] He received a cortisone injection and rehabbed with the Arizona Complex League Rangers before returning to Hickory on July 10.[20] From July 9 (his last rehab appearance) to July 23 (with Hickory), Foscue homered in eight consecutive games, tying the Major League Baseball record.[21] In early August, he was promoted to the Frisco RoughRiders of the Double-A Central.[22] Over 62 games for the 2021 season, Foscue slashed .275/.371/.590 with 17 home runs and 51 RBIs.[23] He played in the Arizona Fall League for the Surprise Saguaros after the season, hitting .257/.416/.529/.944 with five home runs and 14 RBIs.[24][25] He opened the 2022 season with Frisco on the injured list with a back injury.[26] Over 101 games with Frisco, he slashed .288/.367/.483 with 15 home runs, 81 RBIs, and 31 doubles.[27]

Foscue spent the 2023 season with the Round Rock Express of the Triple-A Pacific Coast League, hitting .266/.394/.468/.862 with 18 home runs, 14 stolen bases, and 84 RBI.[28] On November 14, 2023, Texas added Foscue to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[29]

Foscue was optioned to Triple–A Round Rock to begin the 2024 season.[30] On April 2, 2024, Foscue was promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[31] He made his debut on April 5, and collected his first hit on April 7.[32][33] However, Foscue was placed on the injured list on April 8 with an oblique strain.[34] He was transferred to the 60–day injured list on April 13.[35]
