Glenn Braggs

Braggs was a member of the Cincinnati Reds team that defeated the Oakland Athletics in the 1990 World Series.

[4] After beginning the season batting .248 with three homers and 13 RBI in 37 games, he was acquired along with Billy Bates by the Reds from the Brewers for Ron Robinson and Bob Sebra on June 9, 1990.

Braggs robbed Carmelo Martinez of a possible go-ahead home run, reaching up and snagging a long fly as his back hit the wall, for the second out of the inning.

Braggs was known for his upper body strength, and in fact once snapped a bat on a check swing.

In the second inning of Game 4 of the 1990 World Series, he swung so hard at a pitch from the A's Dave Stewart that the bat broke on his back on the follow-through.
