Dave Parker by a mile
I went to a game in PNC where Williams Started Jason Bay hit a slam in the first inning. Reds ended up coming back and winning like 8-7. I remember that was Todd Coffey's first career save.
Anyway a couple months later the family heads to VA. beach. One evening I go to a Tides AAA game. None other than Dave Williams is pitching for Tides. He gets hammered again. I did get to see a Michael Tucker HR though.
Ted Kluszewski
I can't believe that the most votes Parker ever got for the HOF was 24.5%.
To add to the older favorites, all of whom I share, here are two more names: Don Hoak and Gene Freese
Stan Belinda, obviously
According to Baseball Reference, 249 players have played for the Reds and the Pirates.
Only 3 played in 500 games for each team (Dave Parker, Jake Beckley, Jerry Lynch).
Only 3 pitchers had at least 40 wins for each team (Pink Hawley, John Smiley, Red Lucas)
