Ron Gant was once a great player for the Atlanta Braves.

Last year, Gant played for the Cincinnati Reds . . . against Atlanta in the league championship series.

This year, Gant plays for the St. Louis Cardinals . . . who will meet Atlanta for the league championship.

“We seem to keep running into Ronnie,” pitcher Tom Glavine said. “He’s such a good player. You hate to keep giving him the opportunity to burn you.”
