Reggie walked in the 2nd inning and hit homers in the 4th, 5th and 8th innings. Officially, he was 3 for 3 with one BB, 4 R and 5 RBI. Going back to the previous game, he actually hit 4 HR in 4 consecutive at bats.\n\nThis game was the World Series clincher and his homer in the 8th was his last at bat of the game. \n\nIf you're asking what he did in his first at bat of the next season.......I have no idea. He was 1 for 3 with 1 BB and was caught stealing twice in a 2-1 season opening loss to the Rangers, but I don't have the play by play.

He pitched in 4 games in 1988 and 5 in 1989.  His official rookie season is 1990 with Baltimore.

As already stated, Sean Casey will be the starting first baseman this year.  Unless he is traded, Craig Wilson will be the primary backup; Jose Hernandez is also able to play the position.  At AAA, they've got a good prospect in Brad Eldred, who will likely be on the major league team at some time this year.

Fernando Tatis\n\nOn April 23, 1999, Fernando Tatis, batting for the St. Louis Cardinals in his 226th big league game, became the first player in Major League baseball history to hit two grand slam home runs in the same inning.

Albert Pujols of The ST. Louis Cardinals no doubt
1078626
RIght now, he's on the disabled list, so he doesn't 'play' for anyone.\n\nBut he is the property of the St. Louis Cardinals, and plays for them whenever he can.  He'll be back first chance he gets.

He's here with AZ Diamondbacks. So far he's not pitched up to par and has had only one good start in first 4 appearances. Supposedly he's 37, but I think he's closer to age 40!!!
