The Savannah Bananas are playing at Great American Ball Park on Friday night.

Fav-favorite Sean Casey got an at-bat and drew a walk in only a way he could. The ball went to the backstop and Casey rounded first pretending he was going to try for second before retreating back to first.

Casey slashed .305/.371/.463 across eight seasons with the Reds and was an All-Star in 1999, 2001 and 2004.

The Reds traded Casey to the Pirates in 2006. He spent his last three seasons with Pittsburgh, Detroit, and Boston.

Former Reds' closer Danny Graves was in the booth during Casey's at-bat for the Bananas. Graves had 182 saves across nine seasons with Cincinnati.
