  • Jody Eric Reed (born July 26, 1962 in Brandon, Florida) is a former second baseman in Major League Baseball who had an 11-year career from 1987-1997. The 5'9" second baseman played with the Boston Red Sox from 1987–1992, and in 1990 he led the American League with 45 doubles and finished 10th in the AL with 173 hits. He also totalled more than 40 doubles in 1989 and 1991. Reed was a career .270 hitter who also played with the Los Angeles Dodgers (1993), Milwaukee Brewers (1994), San Diego Padres (1995–1996) and Detroit Tigers (1997). Reed played college baseball for the Florida State University Seminoles under head coach Mike Martin. Unfortunate moments during Reed's pro baseball career include when he grounded into a triple play in a 1990 game between the Boston Red Sox and Minnesota Twins. This was not the first but second triple play of the game, making it noteworthy in baseball statistics. Reed is also "remembered for turning down a large contract from the Dodgers" but this would be far from the truth. The offer was taken off the table before Reed was allowed to accept it because the Dodgers opted to trade for Delino Deshields when the opportunity arose. Jody Reed currently resides in Arizona and will return home to Florida after the season ends to be with his wife Michele and their four daughters. He is currently the manager of the Arizona League Dodgers and the Coordinator of Instruction for the Dodgers Camelback Ranch facility in Glendale, Arizona. Jody Reed still credits his younger brother, Paul, for much of his success having spent hours playing against a better opponent.
