Staton went 0-2 at the plate in that brief action, playing some first base while also pinch-running, scoring a run while also striking out once.
The following season he got into nine games for Detroit, collecting four hits over 17 at-bats, good for a .235 batting average, with three runs batted in and two runs scored.
But that would be it as far as Big League action for the 25-year-old, as he would go on to play the next two seasons in the Mexican League before retiring in 1975.
All told he got to play in 15 games in the Majors, finishing up with a .211 average with four hits in 19 at-bats.
