Well Rob, that is true...but not correct. :D

I'll toss out some other names to see if it helps.

Mark Koenig
Dazzy Vance
Barney McCosky
Curt Flood
Dutch Ruether
Ralph Works
Josh DeVore

Some baseball historian out there should know this. :)

Based on your post in your theme request thread, and what I know about some of the guys on the squad (Matty, Brown, Hornsby, and Flood in particular), I'm guessing all your players were with the Reds at one time or another.

BINGO!

I was looking through baseball-reference and couldn't believe that all those guys played with or managed the Reds at one time. There is probably another 30-40 that I haven't listed.

I could put together quite a team of Reds associated players. :D
