June 11, 1968 The Reds traded Milt Pappas, Ted Davidson and Bob Johnson to the Braves for Tony Cloninger, Clay Carroll and Woody Woodward. The Reds were glad to get rid of Pappas, who will forever be remembered for the Frank Robinson trade. At the time of the deal, Pappas was 2-5 with a 5.60 ERA. Three days earlier, he tried to organize a walkout of the players prior to a game against the Cardinals in protest against playing on the day Robert F. Kennedy's funeral. Cloninger never really panned out with the Reds. It was Carroll who proved to be the prize to the deal. He was 71-43 with 119 saves and a 3.27 ERA in eight seasons with the club.
