Best Cincinnati Reds Ever: George Foster v. Wally Post

First Round Matchup | No. 3 George Foster v. No. 14 Wally Post

Foster:

George Foster didn’t join the Cincinnati Reds until a midseason trade during the 1971 season — and once he did he hardly made a name for himself. But four years later he began to shows glimpses of a future All-Star when he hit .300 with 23 home runs and 78 RBIs. Foster broke out entirely the following season as a key player for the Big Red Machine.
