About Ben Revere
Ben Daniel Revere (born May 3, 1988) is an American former professional baseball outfielder. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Minnesota Twins, Philadelphia Phillies, Toronto Blue Jays, Washington Nationals, and Los Angeles Angels. Revere played baseball at Lexington Catholic High School, where he received several awards during his junior and senior seasons. Revere was selected in the first round of the 2007 Major League Baseball draft by the Minnesota Twins and played in their farm system for three seasons before being called up to Major League Baseball in late 2010. He played with the Twins for two more seasons before being traded to the Phillies in the 2012 offseason. Revere began the 2013 season as the Phillies' leadoff hitter before suffering an injury and being moved down in the lineup. His primary strengths were his speed and his defense; he struggled to hit for power, hitting just seven home runs in the major leagues. Writers and teammates have described Revere as being a genuine, goofy, energetic player.
