The Captain of the Big Red Machine: Why Davey Concepción is a Legendary #13
Was Davey Concepción the most influential shortstop of his era? Long before the modern era of “showtime” shortstops, Davey was redefining the position for the Cincinnati Reds. As the defensive anchor of the Big Red Machine, Concepción turned the Number 13 into a symbol of championship pedigree and defensive innovation.
In this video, we break down the career of the man who bridged the gap between the legends of the past and the superstars of today. From his five Gold Gloves to his retired number at Great American Ball Park, we’re making the case for why Davey Concepción is a top-tier legend among the greats who wore #13.
Why Davey Concepción is a Tier-1 Legend:
The “Turf Bounce” Innovator: We revisit how Davey revolutionized shortstop play by intentionally bouncing throws off the AstroTurf to gain speed and accuracy—a move that changed the game.
9-Time All-Star: From 1973 to 1982, Davey was a perennial selection, proving he was the elite standard for National League shortstops for a full decade.
Two-Time World Series Champion: We analyze his role in the 1975 and 1976 titles, where his glove and clutch bat helped solidify the Reds as a true dynasty.
The Captain’s Legacy: A look at why the Reds retired his #13 in 2007, joining the ranks of Bench, Morgan, and Perez in the pantheon of Cincinnati greats.
