    Jordan you are such a sweet grandson, you made grandpaw so happy. You can clearly see he went back in time just thinking about his time as a teenager. Grandpaw is pretty smart with things in his past. This vlog clearly made my day. I really enjoy your visits when you go visit your family. Thank you for letting us be a part of your visits. You created a fond memory not only for you but for grandpaw as well. God Bless grandpaw and you as well. Have a wonderful day. Peace, Love and Happiness.... Nada xx

    My team! My town! One of my all time favorite Reds figures. Nothing like sitting at Riverfront with your radio to listen to Marty and Joe. Crosley was my mom's time, and she always spoke of it wth such love.
    And thank you, Grandpa for sharing your memories ❤

    Jordon, It is so wonderful that you have quality time with your grandfather. What a wonderful gentleman. It was so nice to watch your Granada eyes light up as he reminisced with you about the baseball field & some of the players. A truly memorable moment with your grandfather.

    Jordan, I’m a huge baseball fan so this was awesome to me. I know you’ve said before that you’d love to take your Pappaw to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown. Ive been and I think he would do fine. The drive from the airport in Albany to Cooperstown isn’t too bad. The Hall of Fame museum has places to sit down if needed. I’d love to see y’all go! I went with my dad last October and he has lung cancer. He took little breaks when needed. It was a dream come true!!

    This was very nice vlog. Great to see you enjoying this with your Pappaw, you know he did & brought back memories for him too. Crosley Field was designed with the same dimensions as the real field and several hundred seats were preserved for Blue Ash. Scoreboard unfortunately is a reproduction of the last game Played at Crosley with the original line up and games that were playing around the leagues. Would have been neat if replica River Front had the simulated base path setup the way the real one did. Thank you to your Pappaw for joining in.

  • @staceydelong1058
    @staceydelong1058 4 роки тому +3

    Love grandpa! Baseball does bring family together, especially the Reds. I remember Marty and Joe and those silly Kroger commercials. Old Marge sitting in the stands with Shotzie. Being allowed to stay up late on a school night to watch Pete Rose make his historical homerun. Being from west central Ohio the Reds is a way of life. So much so that back in 90 we had a wedding in North Carolina and of course the world series had to be on somewhere. The only thing anybody remembers about the Cleveland Indians is the movie Major League but the Reds has a legacy. The Big Red Machine will live on! I hope you can do a few more vlogs with Grandpa. Cherish those moments.

    I loved this so much! Your grandpa is a doll! My mom was born in 1932 and was a huge Reds fan. Her favorite was Ewell Blackwell and he came THAT close to getting two consecutive no hitters like Vander Meer. (His second was broken up in the 9th by Eddie Stanky.)

  • @jtlovemaster4599
    @jtlovemaster4599 Рік тому

    Great tour! Thanks so much!! The Reds final lineup (9th inning) as depicted on the scoreboard for 24 May, 1970 was: 14- Rose- RF, 28- Tolan- CF, 24- Perez 3B, 5- Bench C, 23- May 1B, 16- Jimmy (super-sub) Stewart- LF, 19- Helms- 2B, 12- Chaney- SS, 31- McGlothlin-P. Starting pitcher Jim McGlothlin had left the game after the 7th inning though. There is also the yellow, home run line on the scoreboard. That was only on there in the last 2-3 years of Crosley's existence. Before that, any ball hit anywhere off the scoreboard was still in play. That robbed many good hitters (especially Frank Robinson) plenty of career home runs.

Your Gpa is very sharp and knows his baseball stuff!! I really love Baseball fields especially the old ones and even though that was a replica of the original Crosley, the fact that they keep a lot of it and the scoreboard really kept to the integrity of it. I am not even a bit Baseball or sports person but I appreciate what it has meant and Field of Dreams is one of my most favorite movies.

    Joe was broadcasting, when a foul ball came back and Joe tried to catch it.
    Joe fumbled the catch and the ball went flying away.
    Clearly, someone from the crowd shouted out "Hey Joe, you didn't have your Wheaties."
