Back when baseball was magical. That intro and music is amazing. Great days. The Reds shocked everyone by sweeping the juggernaut Oakland A's. I'd love to see the Reds win another world series in my lifetime.
This defines my childhood. I absolutely loved baseball and NFL on CBS. NBA on NBC and Monday Night Football on ABC. Every one of the theme songs was amazing.
@@warrenkemmer1307 Nobody thought the stadiums were ugly at the time. Riverfront was a beautiful park and saw a lot of history... only to be chopped up and ultimately blown up. Now all the pretty new parks are named after corporations that have nothing to do with baseball. Riverfront Stadium got lucky - under construction it was unnamed and just "the new riverfront stadium" and it never got saddled with a stupid corporate name and officially became Riverfront... until it got named after the electric company... then being blown up was a mercy killing. Baseball from 1994 onward was already dead to me, the dynamite of 2002 just finished the funeral and cremation.
Fun Fact: Willie Randolph (of the A's) got swept by the Reds in the WS TWICE--he was a member of the Yankees squad that lost to the Big Red Machine in '76
Oliver had the game-winning hit in the bottom of the 10th of this very game! That Reds team had production up and down the lineup the entire season! The WS was just a continuation of that timely contribution
@Jim McCracken Who knew how to do both - coach and manage! He validated that when he made the Mariners a three time ALCS participant! The Mariners weren't even relevant pre-Piniella
It always amazes me that you could tell the commentators were pulling for the As because everyone thought they would win. Everyone underestimated the Reds and I love it!
Actually the Reds were behind until the bottom of the eighth inning so I don't know if you're view is actually accurate. I think what you're saying was probably true by the third game.
Rick Honeycutt was an All American Pitcher and First Baseman for the Tennessee Vols in the 70s, even lead the SEC batting .404 in 1976. Huge Vols fan, but man I'm glad Rick blew the save in this one. Was a great series. My grandfather made me a Reds fan. This is the last world series we ever shared and we got to see the Reds sweep it. Sweet memoroes. Thanks for posting this.
TN Fan here also, rough day for us. lol Reds Fan from the 70's. First game July76. Saw George Foster hit a laser beam into the cheap seats at Riverfron. GBO
Thank you for posting this. Never thought I would get so much enjoyment watching something that I already knew the result of, but this was great, definitely the best game of the series, and fun to watch.
I know quite a bit about Riverfront Stadium's history in the World Series. When the A's played in the 1972 World Series against the Reds, the series started at Riverfront and ended there. Oakland's Gene Tenace blasted 2 homers in Game 1 at Riverfront - and later on, the A's won the series in 7 games - the A's winning the championship in Game 7 at Riverfront. The only pyrotechnics from the stadium was at the Oakland Coliseum. So, this World Series (1990) is a repeat of these two teams facing each other 18 years prior. Riverfront started to add the big fireworks to the Reds organization around the 1980s onward, especially when Pete Rose got his 4,192 hit at the stadium, where a 500-shot fireworks display was blasting in celebration of that hit. Fireworks went off also after the Reds won the ballgame after that milestone too (about 50 more aerial shots). Well, I see new Reds ballplayers in the 1990 WS who were a bit like the old-time Big Red Machine--like Paul O'Neill, who played just like Tony Perez, and Barry Larkin, who almost played like Joe Morgan.
Was a perfect ending of a career for a true team player Ron Oester, last appearance in a game being a World Series at bat with a run scoring single in front of the hometown crowd. Always forgotten is Armstrong's 5-7, this is what really gave the Reds a chance to win. Also who thinks in the bottom of the 8th (2:02) Sam Perlozzo was glad the Thirdbase Coaches box is pretty far from the dugout and Pinella? :P
The 1990 Miracle Reds. Perhaps not as dramatic as the 1969 Mets worst-to-first, but the composition of the teams was similar. You had two "superstar" players in the lineup in Larkin and Davis, but the whole team contributed up and down the batting order, Duncan, Oliver, and of course the immortal Billy Hatcher. I've been watching other games from the 1990 regular season and Hatcher was always in the thick of it. Even in this game how many outfield plays did he get? 7 straight hits with a pair of walks bookending nine straight times. This is one of my all time favorite games. I KNEW the Reds would sweep after this win. Can't say how I knew, but I believe in momentum. Two of the greatest managers ever up against each other, two great teams. I'm disappointed the post-game interview with Jack Armstrong wasn't included. I think he returned to his early season success just because the Oakland hitter had never seen him. LaRussa probably didn't expect to see Armstrong as a starter, or even as a middle reliever. He wasn't a Nasty Boy but his 3 scoreless innings in the middle of this game were very important - he kept the Reds in it. Billy Bates had a very short career but what a notch to put in his trophy room? I called the sweep because Browning was up next and the Reds always scored runs for Browning, and game 4 looking to be a rematch of game 1, the Reds had already beaten Stewart and Rijo was in form. In game 4 the A's got desperate and beaned Billy Hatcher since that was the only way to get him out... lol. Unfortunately you can't ever have another season or series like this. Too many levels of playoffs, wild cards, pitch clocks, extra inning ghost runners and other stupid stuff. All of those throws to first base that come to matter so much when the season is on the line, and instead you've got penalties and a clock to rush the pitcher. The dynamic of the game has changed for the worse.
Oliver's GW single was almost identical to Sal Perez's single to win the 2014 Wild Card game. My A's seem to lose in the most excruciating ways possible.
LaRussa and Stewart criticized Canseco for the misplay on Hatcher's triple in the 8th inning. Yeah, that was pretty ugly. But if you ask me, that's on LaRussa for not taking Canseco out for a defensive sub. He was clearly not 100% healthy in this series.
And how about Billy Bates. Only played 2 years in the majors with 6 total regular season hits in his career. But in this game, he's inserted into the lineup to pinch hit for Rob Dibble, but also because he's fast. He goes up against the Hall of Fame save pitcher ( Eckersley ), hits an infield choper, and is able to get an infield hit out of it, for hit #7 of his career. 3 minutes later, he's scoring the winning run in the game to give the Reds a 2 - 0 lead in the series. That would be his last action in a major league uniform. But he'd get a World Series ring.
I was born in Cincy, moved to Atlanta as a child and my Dad and many relatives are huge Reds fans. I've always been a Braves fan first and Reds fan second, and I too miss the days when the Reds were competitive. It's so hard for small market teams to compete any more. Baseball is just not the same.
Absolutely put the A’s into panic mode! I still wonder, after all these years, if Hatcher probably should have been the MVP of the series… His bat was so hot, it sizzled! Every at bat, he put so much pressure on the A’s… what a performance!
Sabo had an incredible series, too. Three hits in Game Two, two dingers in Game Three, set a record for chances at third base in Game Four to go with three more hits (but no runs or RBI).
Oliver saved the Reds from a potential crisis with pitching. Tom Browning snuck out of Riverfront to be with his wife in the process of giving birth, and both Buck and Marty made public appeals to order him back, but he didn't hear the messages
Game 2 of 1976 series ended almost exactly the same. Game tied at 3 with 2 out in the bottom of the 9th, Perez singled home Griffey to win it. And Perez was there to congratulate Oliver for repeating the feat.
Bob Welch had a great year that year but you could tell he was working off of pure grit in this game. His velocity was off and he was relying mainly on that slurve for strikes. If Hassey hadn't been calling the game I think the Reds would have gotten to Welch a lot earlier. Hassey was a master game caller.
Hate Roger Clemons but he was way way better than Welch that year and should have won Cy young. Back then, wins alone took on much more importance than now.
This matchup came down to three catalysts for the Reds! Eric Davis, Billy Hatcher and Jose Rijo! Rijo throws two dominant games with Hatcher providing nine hits! And although it wasn't as dramatic as Kirk Gibson, Davis' Game 1 performance alerted the A's that their competition was more level than people we're giving the Reds credit for! His home run was the momentum that Cincinnati built off of for the entire series! Had Rijo not been in his zone, Hatcher would have been the MVP! He still has the WS record for highest batting avg with at least 10 plate appearances (an astounding .750)
Jack Buck was an absolute choad. He couldn’t stand that the Reds were bashing the A’s brains in. He worshipped them openly, on air! I swear he must’ve been on the A’s payroll. Even in game 4, he was still talking about an A’s comeback. World class penile implant. Go Reds!
John Clark this one isn't as bad though, because it's unwritten code in baseball that you normally don't bring closers into tie games. Something about the mentality of a closer makes it more difficult for them to preserve a tie than to close out a game with the lead. Sometimes they can do it, but if they do it's really going above and beyond their job description.
This IMO is the most reflective game of this under-valued Series featuring a shocking underdog-triumph; the A's featured an intense offense, so the Reds-stand represented a 'true' resurrection of the scandalized franchise of the modern age. Wow (very righteous!).
This series did a lot of damage to Jose Canseco's reputation and it never fully recovered. He was an A-list sports star on par with the top players in the NFL and NBA at the time. La Russa and several other A's criticized his pathetic effort on the fly by Hatcher in the 8th inning that cost them the game, he played terrible outfield and batted .083 in the series culminating with getting benched in G4. He had a blase attitude about the whole thing that gave off the impression that he didn't really care.
Good base running by Hatcher to 3rd in 8th, when Canseco couldn't make the play. (Rickey Henderson mentions the misplay on pg 200 of his easy read bio - "Off Base: Confessions of a Thief".)
2 ground rule doubles in that game for Cincinnati! Wow! If those batted balls were to go out of the park instead, the Cincinnati fans would have gotten their stadium fireworks exploding!
I was nervous I'd run out of tape (VCR) and started pausing between pitches and non-critical airtime. I added the fade transition when I converted to digital.
Funny, I thought you were pausing to avoid running out of tape, and figured the only way the fade would happen is if someone went back and took the time to do that, but I didn't think anyone would bother with just his own tape to post to UA-cam. Nice work.
Jackson looked horrible in this appearance. I know the Reds win the game, and it was 27 years ago.... but Im still yelling at my screen for Lou to get that bum outta there
Definitely a rough outing for Danny Jackson here, in what proved to be his last game for the Reds. But he pitched a gem in Game 6 of the NLCS, holding the Pirates to 1 hit in 6 innings in Cincinnati's pennant-clinching 2-1 win.
Canseco was a liability for the A’s. What a bad player he was in that series. It wouldn’t surprise me if he was also a negative presence in the clubhouse. I don’t dislike the guy, but he did cheat with roids. That said, I’m a Reds fan since 1972; so, I love this series.
@@BAYAREA-kd1ig Why???...because I dislike the Athletics... I am a Yankees fan all my life and hated them in the 80s... they were the best team in baseball and lost 2 out of three times in the WS..Just like the Braves of the 90s... You sir..are the one that sounds like a putz...👿👿😡😡
I forgot what a crap series O'Neil had. Great player but wow he sucked in this one. Automatic out. Oliver brought the house down. Hatcher incredible and Sabo unstoppable.
But without his glove and bat work against the Pirates, the Reds chances would have been much slimmer! Key assists and a ridiculous .471 batting avg against Pittsburgh
Eight year old me watched this game on TV with my grandma... while my parents were at the game without me -_- This was the game where the A's realized it wasn't a fluke.
Back when baseball was magical. That intro and music is amazing. Great days. The Reds shocked everyone by sweeping the juggernaut Oakland A's. I'd love to see the Reds win another world series in my lifetime.
Yea but this era has a bunch of ugly stadiums and that astro turf with the dirt patches I always hated that
This defines my childhood. I absolutely loved baseball and NFL on CBS. NBA on NBC and Monday Night Football on ABC. Every one of the theme songs was amazing.

wow, what a game to be at....i’m jealous

I'm a big reds fan and Eric Davis was my favorite. Fun to rewatch.
Mine too! I always imitated his batting stance on the playground.
This was a good time for Cincinnati sports this was before my love for baseball started to fade, a big thank you to Rus D
It always amazes me that you could tell the commentators were pulling for the As because everyone thought they would win. Everyone underestimated the Reds and I love it!
Love this game, you can see the A's players start to realize they are outmatched. Outgunned. Outplayed. Outcoached.
it was just the reds year,
Out- Destiny-ed
Outracistownered.
And they beat Eckersley!

1:12:49 Ron Oester’s last plate appearance. He made it count.
Ron Oester was a solid Red!!!
I'm not a big fan of umpires drawing attention to themselves but I have to admit Rocky Roe's bellowing strike calls kind of add to the drama.
Who cares?! The better team won! U don't go wire 2 wire 4 nothing!!!!!!!!!!!
Oliver's GW single was almost identical to Sal Perez's single to win the 2014 Wild Card game. My A's seem to lose in the most excruciating ways possible.

Riverfront was the greatest stadium of all time
One of the three identically built parks.
Riverfront (Cincinnati)
Three Rivers (Pittsburgh)

What happened to Canseco's home run?
any other reds fans watching in 2020? 1) i miss baseball 2) i need to see some victory, there's already enough defeat to go around
9-6 in 2021... looks like it could be a promising year for us. Hope your enjoying having baseball back.

Had lansford been playing on the line on that lasst at bat...
LaRussa stayed with Welch way too long

I forgot what a crap series O'Neil had. Great player but wow he sucked in this one. Automatic out. Oliver brought the house down. Hatcher incredible and Sabo unstoppable.
He was great in the NLCS as well
Big O'Neill played well in the nlcs tho especially game 2
But without his glove and bat work against the Pirates, the Reds chances would have been much slimmer! Key assists and a ridiculous .471 batting avg against Pittsburgh
Dibble and Canseco have the worst mullets
Same barber
Lost 10 pounds with this game.

My God was Jack Buck awful.
No, he just wasn't cut out for television. He'd spent his whole career on radio

Eight year old me watched this game on TV with my grandma... while my parents were at the game without me -_-
This was the game where the A's realized it wasn't a fluke.
Nobody brings rolls of toilet paper to the ball games anymore. So sad.
I just got my orders for desert shield, so my bff toke me to this game, best send off ever.
