Best Cincinnati Reds Ever: Dave Concepcion v. Cesar Geronimo

First Round Matchup | No. 5 Dave Concepcion v. No. 12 Cesar Geronimo

Concepcion:

A nine-time All-Star, slick-fielding shortstop, Dave Concepcion was among the best at his position during his time with the Cincinnati Reds. And that time spanned 19 years from 1970-88 (22 years old to 40). This included a primary role on the back-to-back World Series champion Big Red Machine teams in 1975 and 76.

Concepcion was a career .297 hitter in the postseason (34 games) including a .357 AVG in the four-game sweep of the Yankees in the ’76 World Series.
