Chris Dickerson (30) -Wow, that was quick...I still think of him as a prospect.

Ken Griffey Sr. (62) -I don't know anything about Senior that you don't- sorry.
Joe Gibbon (77) -A Red in the "lost year" of 1971, but better known as a Pirate. Reds fans also remember him for giving up the hit to Bobby Tolan that won the 1970 LCS for the Reds. Other trivia: In his Reds year, Gibbon was the pitcher in the only game that ever ended with a walk-off catcher interference call. In the bottom of the ninth with the score tied, Manny Mota tried to steal home and Johnny Bench stepped out in front of the plate before the pitch was delivered. Harry Wendlestadt made the call.
