		The son of standout catcher Bob Boone, grandson of former infielder Ray Boone, and brother of Reds third baseman Aaron Boone, Bret became the first-ever third-generation major-leaguer in 1992.
		Boone continued to hit for power in Atlanta, but his all-or-nothing approach to hitting prevented him from becoming the type of table-setter manager Bobby Cox envisioned when he decided to bat Boone second in the lineup.
		Boone considered demanding a trade in November, and a month after deciding against it he was dealt to San Diego as part of a six-player deal for Quilvio Veras, a speedier second baseman who had more experience at the top of the order.

		Boone has a method to what you think is his madness.

		When your team is last in the NL in fielding, strikes out nine times a game and thinks a sacrifice is giving up the post-game food spread, and you practice the Alan Alda method of managing, people are going to wonder.
