Ben Risinger

Risinger tied Omar Linares for the third-highest average in an Intercontinental Cup from 1991–2007, trailing only Jeffrey Cranston (.591, 1995) and fellow Australian team member Paul Gonzalez (.571, 1994).

He was then brought up to San Diego, not as a player, but as the bullpen catcher when Mark Merila was battling a brain tumor.
