its seems that there is 2-3 per year usually

I want one of the reds to hit a walk off in the playoffs… hasn’t happened since the early 70s

Who was Curtis Goodwin?

If a guy hits .300 every year, what does he have to look forward to? I always tried to stay around .190, with three or four RBI. And I tried to get them all in September. That way I always had something to talk about during the winter.

He was, at the time, one of the fastest guys in all of baseball

And he played CF.

And if The Dusty would have had him, you bet your ass he would have batted him leadoff

I'm surprised Willie Greene's not on this list.

I remember him hitting lots of memorable home runs one year and could’ve sworn at least one was of the walk-off variety. Apparently not. Also, I do vividly remember that Pokey Reese home run, in extra-innings late in the magical 99 season. I still have a drawing I did of him from his picture in the next day’s Enquirer.

Willie Greene never hit a walk-off home run in his career

He only hit one go-ahead home run in the 9th inning, but that was for Toronto. He did hit 2 home runs in 1998 that tied the game in the 7th inning or later.

It's possible that Willie Greene's greatness is exaggerated by my memory.

I was there for 7-23-1995.

We were tied from the 6th -10th innings, then Xavier Hernandez gave up a 2-run bomb, and Cinergy emptied. Then Larkin led off the bottom of the 10th with a single…and was quickly eliminated on a GIDP. But a couple of singles later, Bret Boone ROIDED one over the LCF wall to end what Joe Nuxhall termed “The most exciting game I can remember!” Marty was geeked out on the call: “The Reds of 1995 are inCREDible!”
