  1976 Red, career pinch hitter, Mike Lum. Looked up the Reds rosterfor 1976 for this one. I remember him playing a long time for the Braves.

  Wasn't he the first Hawaiin born player?
  
  
  Lum at 640 is the 5th most all-time
  
  
  Need 3 more....2 with Reds connections.....one current

  George McBride? I remember a message board comparing his HRs to ABs (which was a horrible ratio), but I don't know if he was a good hitter in general
• Ironman92

  

  Let's try Duane Kuiper...worst HR/AB ratio
• Ironman92

  

  nope ol Kuiper was at 140

  lol @ Dempsey He had 5 seasons with single digit hit totals and it took him into his 8th season before his 100th career hit.....I knew he played in 4 decades (kind of).....didn't know he made it 24 years
