Baseball Players who Played for Reds and Diamondbacks
There is a good chance that if you’ve found this page then you’re playing the Immaculate Grid.
That also means that today’s grid has asked for players that have played for both the Cincinnati Reds and Arizona Diamondbacks.
And, it also means that you’re probably stuck on this particular box and you’re looking for a little help. Sound about right so far?
Well, good news, you’re in the right place.
I’ve done some research and have found players who played for both the Reds and the Diamondbacks.
Adam Dunn
Adam Dunn, who played from 2001 to 2014, is best known for his time as an outfielder and designated hitter with the Cincinnati Reds and Chicago White Sox.
Over his 14-season career, Dunn accumulated over 1600 hits, an impressive 462 home runs, and a .237 career batting average. He was named an All-Star twice (Reds, White Sox) and was notable for his significant home run power and ability to draw walks, leading the league in walks twice and regularly ranking among the top in home runs.
Dunn went over 40 home runs in a season with the Reds and White Sox and over 100 RBIs with the Reds and Nationals (both possible Immaculate Grid stat boxes).
Trevor Bauer
Trevor Bauer is a pitcher known for his unique approach to training and outspoken personality. Bauer made his major league baseball debut with the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2012 before being traded to the Cleveland Indians in 2013.
Bauer’s time with the Indians saw him develop into one of the top pitchers in baseball, earning an All-Star selection in 2018. He was traded to the Cincinnati Reds in 2019 and put together an outstanding 2020 season, posting a 1.73 ERA and striking out 100 batters in just 73 innings, which earned him the National League Cy Young Award.
After his award-winning season with the Reds, Bauer signed a contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2021 but only played one season there before retiring.
Tony Womack
Tony Womack is known for his career as a second baseman and outfielder in Major League Baseball from 1993 to 2006. Womack’s first stint was with the Pittsburgh Pirates where he played from 1993 to 1998, followed by time with the Diamondbacks, Rockies, Cubs, Cardinals, and Yankees.
Womack had a career batting average of .273 and accumulated 363 stolen bases, making him one of the most dangerous base runners during his time.
Perhaps his most significant contribution was in the 2001 World Series, where his 9th inning hit for the Diamondbacks in Game 7 led to the winning run against the Yankees.

Bronson Arroyo
Bronson Arroyo had a 16-year career playing for several teams, most notably the Boston Red Sox and the Cincinnati Reds. Known for his high leg kick and a wide variety of pitches, Arroyo had a distinctive style on the mound that made him a fan favorite.
Arroyo played a pivotal role in the Boston Red Sox’s curse-breaking World Series win in 2004.
Following his stint in Boston, he became a staple of the Cincinnati Reds’ rotation, earning an All-Star nod in 2006. That year, he led the National League in innings pitched (240.2) and finished with a solid 3.29 ERA. In 2010, Arroyo won a Gold Glove with Cincinnati for his defensive efforts on the mound.
