Some more lineup cards to share:

On top:
-July 23, 2001, Reds at Braves, Reds won 5-4.
-Adam Dunn's 4th career game, going 2 for 4 off starting pitcher Tom Glavine, including a leadoff single to start a 5-run 8th inning for the Reds.
-Blue carbon copy filled out/signed by Reds Manager Bob Boone, given to Braves. White Braves batting order, presumably filled out by Bobby Cox.

On bottom:
-September 24, 2012, Indians at White Sox, Chicago won 5-4.
-Dunn had 4 RBI off 2 home runs (#40 and #41 on season).
-From an interview after the game: "The last homer, that probably was the most important so far in my career," Dunn said. "That was a win we needed."

Congratulations to Adam Dunn on being named the next inductee into the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame!

Dunn (2001-08) was the top vote-getter selected by fans, Reds alumni and select members of the media through the Modern Player Ballot.

Here is the Nike Diamond Pro Dri-FIT fielding glove used by Adam Dunn during his 2001 rookie season. Dunn signed and inscribed this with "1st Glove" and an accompanying signed LOA details this as being his "1st major league game used glove". There aren't a ton of pictures available from his 2001 rookie year but I was able to find style/photo matches for this glove from:

-2001 Louisville RiverBats minor league game.
-2001 All-star Futures Game (played July 1, 2001 at Safeco Field in Seattle).
-Reds vs. Cubs at Cinergy Field on September 18, 2001 (the first Reds game played after 9/11/01).

This glove shows excellent use which you can see in person should you visit the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame Museum this year.
