Tony Perez

He was voted to the Baseball Hall of Fame; He was a 7-time All-Star; He helped guide the Cincinnati Reds to the World Series 4 times in 7 years

Nicknamed "Big Dawg," Pérez was a key member of Cincinnati's "Big Red Machine". Apart from his years with the Reds (1964-76, 1984-86), he also played for the Montreal Expos (1977-79), Boston Red Sox (1980-82) and Philadelphia Phillies (1983).

Tony Perez was a seven time All-Star who was voted the Most Valuable Player of the 1967 All-Star Game. Beginning in 1970, the Reds went to the World Series four times in seven years, winning back-to-back world championships in 1975 and 1976, with Pérez as a starting player. Pèrez was one of the premier RBI men of his generation, driving in 100 or more runs seven times in his 23-year long career.

In an eleven-year stretch from 1967 to 1977, Pérez drove in 90 or more runs each year, with a high of 129 RBIs in 1970. He was second among all major-leaguers in RBI, with 954, behind only his teammate Johnny Bench. Pérez also hit the first home run in Pittsburgh's Three Rivers Stadium.

In 2000, Pérez was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Pérez also has the distinction of being the first player elected to the Hall of Fame that played for the Montreal Expos. Tony Perez was also inducted into the Hispanic Heritage Baseball Museum Hall of Fame. Pérez was inducted into the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame in 1998.
