Major League debut: September 2, 1995
How acquired: Signed as a free agent formerly with the Los Angeles Dodgers, December 17, 2009
Others wearing #7 in the 2000s: Terry Francona (manager) 2000, Richie Hebner (coach) 2001, John Mabry 2002, Jeremy Giambi 2002, Gary Varsho (coach) 2003-2004, Kenny Lofton 2005, Marc Bombard (coach) 2006, Steve Smith (coach) 2007, Pedro Feliz 2008-2009
