[zigbee]

India bring in MOOOOOOSE with a hit he fights off his wrists for his 11th RBI already....2-0 REDS.

Not sure how that confirms it being a baseball city.  The way he described it it sounds like a front runner city.  

Apparently my fat fingers included a guy sticking out his tongue in the post heading.  Not sure even through an edit how to get rid of that.

   AND...probably the best team in baseball history with that 76 team, ...

You can silly GIF all night.  Really don't care but truth is truth....MASHING the Phillies and Yankees in Sweep with a back to back WORLD TITLE and future HOFers...but you can now pitchblack this a few pages before we get back to covering this season.

In a time when the baseball season lasted 154 games, the 1927 Yankees went 110-44. Babe Ruth mashed a record 60 home runs (more than 12 whole teams hit that year) and Lou Gehrig hit .373 with 47 home runs and 52 doubles. Outfielders Earl Combes (.356 BA) and Bob Meusel (.337 BA) combined for 83 doubles. They were called “Murderers†Row” for a reason.

The 1927 Yankees could also pitch with the best of them. Ace Waite Hoyt went 22-7 with a 2.63 ERA while closer Wilcy Moore chalked up 19 wins out of the bullpen with an ERA of 2.28. Their run differential (number of runs they outscored opponents) was a staggering 376. In the World Series, the Babe hit .400 with seven RBI as the Yankees swept the Pittsburgh Pirates in four games. Itâ€s what happens when the best player ever leads the best squad ever against any opponent.

If you really think the athletes back in those days were better God Bless you...AND if you really think the Yankees played against better athletes than what Reds faced in 1970s with instruction, development, size, nutrition, speed, players progressing from HS up through minor leagues DOULBE GOD BLESS YOU.  I would doubt a smidgen of those players would make a club in the 1970s...but you can believe what you wish.  I really don't give a damn.

Using that reasoning the 2020 Dodgers are way better than the 1976 Reds because they have better athletes and better training and development methods than teams 4 or 5 decades before them.  I will go with that.

Yeah sorry man the 76 reds were the best team in history and especially in a more competitive era as well.

Would any of you Cincy guys be willing to become the Reds' version of Steve Bartman, if it guaranteed that the Bengals would win the next Super Bowl?

you can go with anything you wish..pitch, er Hightop.  I really don't care.  76 Reds are in modern era like today...but you can pretend all day long.  don't care.  It's almost like someone on here bragging about Princeton football winning 28 titles and following them....

So the difference between 1976 and 1927 is of great relevance but the difference between 2020 and 1976 is not?  Talk about inconsistent reasoning.  Nice Pitchblack gif there.  LOL

Talking to uninformed guys like you who look for things to argue is really boring.  I guess you haven't heard of the MODERN ERA PITCH?  It started in 1950s and continues today.  There is a huge difference.  I followed your lead on the GIFS since you liked them.


ok, BACK to the game and away from the p1tch arguing.....Reds CONTINUE to lead 2-0 over Dbacks as Hoffman throwing ANOTHER solid game.  I can see Reds putting him and Deleon in the pen for long relief when Lorenzen comes back.  Gray slated to pitch this week and I think Hoffman is designated to the pen at this point.  Like to see them release Bedrosian in process.  He's terrible.


UPDATE: Asdrubal Cabrera with HR to make it 2-1 now in 4th.

[ScarletHayes]

I believe we've had this discussion before.  I cited a GOAT list and it was either the 75 or 76 Reds that they had ranked 3rd all time.  I think the '98 Yankees were number one and the '39 Yankees were 2.  The '27 Yankeees, strangely enough, were much farther down the list.

No offense Zig but you have already lost this argument using your own reasoning.  Actually in the era of the 1976 Reds, I'd put the 1970 Orioles ahead of them based on pitching alone.

[ScarletHayes]

You can cite just about any list and the 75/76 Reds will be in the top 5 at worst.  That line up was ridiculous.  Bench, Rose, Perez, Morgan, Foster, Griffey, Concepcion, Geronimo.
