As a Mets fan, this 1990 Reds team is vastly underrated. They held onto first place in the West from Opening day till Closing day. They had a mix of good power, speed and that bullpen was scary and won a lot of games for them. Plus Pinella was IMO a great manager.

My man Eric The Red was never the same after lacerating his kidney in this game. I remember crying when he had to come out of the game. Did you know Marge Schott was so tight that Davis had to pay for his own plane ticket back home? He was still in the hospital when the team went home to Cincinnati. But that was #44. He went ALL OUT ALL THE TIME! While no one thought the Redlegs could beat Stewart even once, they beat him twice and ED's first inning bomb in game 1 set the tone. You were the best kid!

Oakland was the better team and I don't think it's even debatable, the Reds just outplayed them. Other than R. Henderson no one showed up offensively for the A's. Stewart was shaky in game 1 but excellent in game 4 (9 IP 0 ER), Welch was very good in game 2 (after giving up 2 runs in the 1st shut the Reds down to the 8th until Canseco played Hatcher's flyball into a 3B).Cincinnati just played better, got contributions from more players (E. Davis, Hatcher, Sabo, Larkin) and Rijo and the bullpen (Myers, Dibble & Charlton) were excellent.

What a great year for George Steinbrenner. He got suspended from baseball in July, the Yanks finished in last place for the first time in 24 years, a one-time Yankee pitcher, Doug Drabek, won the NL Cy Young Award, Willie McGee, another one-time Yankee prospect, won the NL batting title, his longtime enemy, Dave Winfeld, won AL Comeback player of the year with the Angels, and ex-Yankee Manager, Lou Piniella, won NL Manager of the Year & the World Series. Thank God George got suspended.

Dark day for the MLB. MLB has never recovered from this day.

Ironically, both Major League Baseball and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles premiered on CBS in the same year: 1990!

I agree, very consistent player. I think he doesn't get the recognition because he was a first baseman and didn't have all the power numbers. I think the same could be said about Sean Casey.

There is no salary cap in baseball. You meant to say payroll. As far as whether or not the Yanks would've made that deal if the Dodgers had approached them, the rolls would've had to be reversed. The Sox made that trade when they were out of contention while the Yanks were in first place. In that scenario, obviously the Yanks don't make the trade. Two of the three players you mentioned, CC and Tex, may have limited or full no-trade clauses. Generally speaking, the Yanks don't unload high

lol! Great quote by Sabo. Funny how the better team couldn't win one game

The Bombers under CBS were bad, but only someone who has read as many Yankee books as I have can truly begin to appreciate how much of the Yanks' success from 76-81 & even more recently occurred despite George rather than because of him. George's sons should request that when their father makes it to the HOF that they put a special engraving on the plaque thanking Joe Torre, cause he never would've made it without Joe. Joe, Cashman & Gene Michael deserve credit for saving George from himself.

You're right. It was almost as if a higher power wanted to leave no doubt about the fact that George had really run the Yanks into the ground.

Funnily enough, this game was played the same night Steinbrenner hosted "Saturday Night Live".
