Reds played the Atlanta braves at grand opening of Riverfront stadium July 30, 1970. Name the combined 5 HOFers who were in the starting lineups that day.

Aaron, Bench, Perez are locks: Aaron hit a home run in that game...
I'm going to guess that Niekro started the game...
No idea about number five, I don't think it was a Red...

Actually there were only 4 HOFers who played in that game. I went braindead and counted Rose as a HOFer. You are correct in Bench, Aaron and Perez. Still one more to name. It wasn't Niekro, but a great guess anyway. |

I think Cepeda was on the Braves around that time. I'll go with Orlando.

I think of Cepeda as a Cardinal, totally forgot he played for the Braves...
