What years approximately ... I don't know why I am thinking Austin Kearns.

Didn't come up until game #114 and played every game the rest of the season hitting .348
Started his career for the Reds going 7/7 in his first two games and began his Reds debut with a 10 game hitting streak. |

His second year with the Reds only hit .254......then hit only .239
But his 4th and final year as a Red he hit .334! |

BTW....Kearns is probably the best incorrect guess.

He didn't miss playing with Kearns on the Reds by much.

I was thinking Keppinger or Josh Hamilton, but neither of them had the time. Encarnacion didn't start or finish well. Adam Dunn seems to always have those numbers, but he played longer and he came up around the time Kearns did. Wasn't Deion Sanders in a Reds uniform for a couple of years?

Re: I 92's Baseball Trivia.....Hot Start
Here is another trivia question.
During the Reds World Series season of 1990, only 1 player (besides the pitcher) started on the opening day roster but did not start for the Reds in game 1 of the World Series. Without cheating, who was that player and who was the starter that replaced him to start game 1 of the World Series? |
