      The two best teams of the 70's the Oakland Athletics who won 3 consecutive championships and the Cincinnati Reds who followed winning the next 2. The Athletics won 5 consecutive AL West titles 71 to 75 while the Big Red Machine won the NL West in 70,72,73 75 and 76. A lesser version of the Big Red Machine also won the NL West in 79 but were outmatched by the Pirates.
      The Reds and the Athletics matched up in the 72 World Series with the Athletics winning a classic series in 7. I thought for sure they were gonna meet again in 73 but the Reds were upset by an inferior Mets team in the NL Championship. Too bad we never got a rematch in the battle of the dynasties.

      @@kennethbrady Nope, Sparky didn't mess with Rose, Morgan, Bench & Perez. He knew he didn't need to. No "mind games" necessary. That's just how Sparky was. Very matter of fact. Same with Rose. Munson WAS impressive, especially in this series. So while you're waiting for your relief pitcher to come take the ball....that's what they talked about.
      Bench hit over .500 for the series. He didn't need some mid-Game-4 comment from Sparky to do that. He'd already done it.
      And Rose always had an appreciation for the game itself, even while in the heat of battle. After the gut-wrenching, emotionally-draining Game 6 loss to Carlton Fisk's HR the year before in Boston, Sparky said that Rose came up to him afterward and said, "Was that the greatest game you've ever been a part of, or what?!" Anderson replied, "Peter, we just lost Game 6 of the World Series, and I'm not going to get any sleep tonight, and you're telling me what a great game that was?" Rose unflappably confident response was, "Hey, we're gonna win it tomorrow. But wasn't that a great game?"
      So, no, nobody was trying to "motivate" anybody. That's just how confident & relaxed and matter-of-fact this team was.

    Basically, this was 1976 - the year that the Philadelphia Phillies never held a July 4 game in Veterans Stadium at all due to the Bicentennial frenzy. They did hold a July 5 game in the same stadium with post-game fireworks afterward. There were also fireworks during the National anthem on the 5th too.
    Baseball fans in 1976 took the overall general frenzy of the Bicentennial that year in stride, so with this World Series between the Big Red Machine and Bronx Bombers, I wonder if this series was also called "The Bicentennial Fall Classic" or "The Bicentennial Series..."?????

Likely Reggie was saying, he would be a difference maker in helping the Yankees get back to the top, boy did he ever in the next 2 years, after a 14 yr drought of not winning a World Series.

      It's called "Grandstand", and it was composed by Keith Mansfield, who also composed musical pieces like "Panorama", which ABC used to open it's U.S. Open golf coverage throughout the 1980s, "Solid Gold", which was prominent in the 1977 Masters highlight film, and "Cheerleader", which was prominently used in, among other presentations, the official film of the 1977 British Open, better known for the duel between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus that was almost immediately dubbed, "The Duel in the Sun". This particular jingle ("Grandstand") was used early in the 1979 Pittsburgh Steelers highlight film.
      These and countless others (well over 2,500 now) can be found on Dave Volsky's page, which features background music from sporting highlight presentations, mostly from NFL Films, and a vast majority of them completely uncluttered with other sounds and narration.

      That one's called "Fields of Energy", and it was composed by John Scott. That was frequently used by NFL Films and MLB Productions (especially "TWIB") from the late 70s through the mid 80s. That tune was also used at the beginning of the 1976 Masters film.
      In addition to "Fields of Energy", Scott also composed "Grand Scale", which was prominently used in NFL Films productions, such as the profile of George Halas in "Best Ever Coaches" from 1981, and at the end of "Best Ever Runners", in both the original 1981 version, as well as the 1985 update. Scott also composed "Race the Sun", which was used in auto racing films in the early 70s, including Dynamic Films' version of the 1971 Daytona 500 and the official IMS film of the 1972 Indianapolis 500 during the record-breaking qualifying runs. The latter of these racing films can be seen on my channel.

      They most certainly were, which is a big reason why HRs were down, not just from where they are now, but also from where they were in the 50s and early-to-mid 60s. Consider that, from 1966-'89, only one player, Reds OF George Foster, surpassed the 50 HR for one season (52 in 1977), and when Cecil Fielder hit 51 for the Tigers in 1990, he became the first AL player since Maris and Mantle in 1961 to hit 50 in a season, and he played half his games at hitter-friendly Tiger Stadium. The bigger multi-purpose stadiums had a lot to do with that. In fact, only two players from the era of the multi-purpose stadiums would join the 500 HR club, Mike Schmidt and Reggie Jackson, neither of whom ever hit more than 48 in one season (Schmidt hit 48 in 1980 and Reggie topped out at 47 in 1969).

      You are right. Tony Perez was for real. He was the Yankees killer in Game 2 with that walk-off basehit/RBI. While Johnny Bench was the Yankees killer for Game 4 with 2 crippling round-trippers. The fear of the Big Red Machine may have also caused some of the Yankees to commit nasty and costly errors and misjudged defensive plays in Game 3.

      You hear that gentle part of "CC" with that trumpet solo when Gullitt goes down, and when Joe mentions all of the years that the Yankees had their past World Series years, as well as the Oakland A's triumphs in 1972-1974. But you hear that "rockin' music energy" in that song at the start of the 1976 World Series in Game 1 and all of that Game 1 action, and in the end credits. I wonder if that trumpet solo was by Chuck Mangione who joined up with Brian Bennett's ensemble in the 1970s...

    The City of Cincinnati sorely needs to win another World Series. They haven't done anything with baseball since 1990. Bad management can destroy the Reds - after they won their last championship in 1990 their inept management made horrible moves that could make even diehard Reds fans cry. And of course this is from a Cubs fan of all people.

      Hey pbiblueguy3144, you need to get your shit straight for once, for THIS is what Sparky actually said and did.
      From the New York Times: "During his news conference after the Series finale in 1976, Anderson was asked to compare Yankee catcher Thurman Munson, who was voted the American League’s most valuable player that season, with Bench, the Reds catcher and eventual Hall of Famer who had been the National League’s M.V.P. in 1970 and 1972. The question lighted the bonfire of Anderson’s loyalty to his players.
      “Munson is an outstanding ballplayer and he would hit .300 in the National League,” he replied sharply, “but don’t ever compare nobody to Johnny Bench; don’t never embarrass nobody by comparing them to Johnny Bench.”
      Standing nearby, Munson heard Anderson’s words, and when he followed Anderson to the microphone, he said he felt “belittled.” Three weeks later, Anderson wrote Munson a letter of apology, released by the Reds, that he had “no intention of trying to belittle you or any other catcher.”
      For the Record, Bench is considered by most the Greatest Catcher EVER in Major League Baseball and even Thurman Munson himself would agree with that.
