He was highly respected by his fellow players. Ed Vande Berg, a teammate, stated in 1984 that “You know sooner than later we’re going for some runs.” “We have mister all on the offense–Mr. Alvin Davis. Tommy John described him as a “modern day George Scott” and explained, “When Scott first entered the league, nobody knew how to pitch to them, and they didn’t discover that for three years.”

He only saw action on defense as a first baseman in 52 games that season, further reduced to just 14 games in 1991. His batting average fell to .221 in 1991 with 12 home runs; with young Tino Martinez in the organization, Davis was not in the team’s plans for 1992.
