CINCINNATI - The Cincinnati Reds retired Barry Larkins No. 11 before Saturdays game against the St. Louis Cardinals, paying tribute to the Hall of Fame shortstop who led them to the 1990 World Series title. Larkin, joined on the field by members of his family, former teammates and members of the Reds organization, watched as his number was unveiled, accompanied by a fireworks display. Wearing a grey sports coat and shirt and black pants and wiping his eyes frequently with a white towel, he said he was proud of his hometown. "Im so proud to be the first native Cincinnatian to be inducted into the Hall of Fame," he told the sellout crowd before throwing a ceremonial first pitch to current Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips. "Im so proud and humbled to be on the wall next to my idol, Dave Concepcions No. 13." Larkin spent his entire 19-year career with Cincinnati and was inducted into baseballs Hall of Fame this summer. He hit .295 with 198 home runs and 960 RBIs, winning the NL MVP award when he helped the Reds win the NL Central in 1995. The 12-time All-Star served as team captain while winning nine Silver Slugger and three Gold Glove awards in his career. "Ive been trying to do a lot in a little bit of time," Larkin said during a press conference on Friday when asked what his life has been like since being notified in January that hed been elected to the Hall of Fame. "Theres been a lot of real good busywork. Its appropriate that this is the last piece. It brings it a little closer to home, getting my number retired."
