Back-to-back Reds players coming up on the randomizer after Barry Larkin on my last player post, today it's Tony Perez. Unlike Larkin, Perez played for several teams including a stint with my Red Sox but he is best known as being the RBI cog in the Big Red Machine of the 1970s. I currently have 212 different Beckett recognized cards of "Doggie" including these nine.
