Reds:
Stan Williams (74) -Ex-pitching coach
Others:
Chad Bradford (37) -Side-arming righty featured in Moneyball.
David Bell (38)
Tim Wallach (54)
Jerry Coleman (86) -My favorite Coleman-ism from his announcing career: "Winfield runs toward the fence...he leaps...his head hits the wall!...it's rolling back in toward the infield...he picks it up and throws it in to second base!"
Kid Nichols -Great, forgotten 19th-century pitcher.

Padres just dedicated a Jerry Coleman statue the other day.
