Player Biography
On a club full of stars, Atanasio “Tony” Perez Rigal was considered the most clutch hitter for Cincinnati’s “Big Red Machine” of the 1970s. Longtime opponent Willie Stargell once said, “With men in scoring position and the game on the line, Tony’s the last guy an opponent wanted to see.” The Cuba native was a seven-time All-Star selection and ended his 23-year career with 1,652 RBI, 505 doubles and 379 home runs, while helping to propel the Reds to two World Series championships (1975 and 1976).
