1981 Profile: Dave Revering

"He's worked hard to improve his batting technique and now hits the ball to left field more often. Revering was platooned, playing only against right-handers. He credits the presence of Rickey Henderson and Dwayne Murphy on the base paths with his improved performance in 1980.
Born in Roseville, California, Dave works for a TV station during the off-season. He blames his former manager Sparky Anderson because he never got a chance to play with the Reds in spite of an outstanding minor league record.
A free spirit, Revering was Cincinnati's 7th pick in the 1971 draft."

-Jim Hawkins, The Complete Handbook of Baseball, 1981 Edition
