    Batting

    Ken Boyer finished in second place in  batting average with .311. Jim Davenport and Dick Groat helped the staff. Rookie Lou Brock looks to have a break season next year.

    One third of the Alou brothers had a decent season going .270. Reds look to draft a catcher for next season.

     

    Finances
