The Cincinnati Reds are honoring the late Dave Parker by adding his jersey to the outfield wall.

Parker passed away on June 28.

He was a seven-time All-Star, two-time World Series champion, 1978 National League MVP, three-time Gold Glove Award winner, three-time Silver Slugger recipient, two-time NL batting champion, and he led the National League in RBIs in 1985.

The 74-year-old played for the Reds from 1984 to 1987.

In those four seasons, Parker slashed .281/.334/.469 with 236 extra-base hits with Cincinnati.
