He earned a spot on the Midwest League All-Star team in 1995 because he not only stole 41 bases, he batted a respectable .283 with nine home runs and 55 RBI.

After starting the season without collecting a single hit in his first 11 at bats, he was quickly sent down and did not see any major league action until July of that year.

The first hit of his career was quite impressive-it came in his second game after being recalled from Pawtucket in July-off of pitcher Jason Bere on July 3, he smacked a triple in the sixth inning.

The second came on June 20, 2001, when the Reds traded Sadler to the Kansas City Royals for minor league pitcher Cary Ammons.

[2] Sadler finished with a career batting average of .202, and he did not show the speed he displayed in the minors-the highest total of stolen bases he had in a season was seven.
