Henry "Hank" Bivens

Third baseman Hank Bivens was a non-roster invitee with the Cincinnati Reds (or Redlegs) in 1958 and 1959. He was a hometown lad who hit .453 as a shortstop for Cincinnati's Withrow High School in 1957.

The photo on the left shows him with the Salem (OR) Senators. It comes from The Oregon Statesman of April 19, 1960. The photo on the right misses out on catching his face, since it pictures him sliding him into home plate, but it does document him in a Cincinnati Reds uniform. It's from the Rochester (NY) Democrat and Chronicle of March 25, 1958. The Phillie player tagging him is pitcher Gene Snyder.
