MLB WS 1975 Game 1 Reds vs Red Sox

[@GoldAndSilver988]

I think the Big Red Machine is still the greatest starting lineup of all time. I was 11 in 1975; became a Reds fan then and have been ever since. But, sadly, baseball isn't what it used to be. And, hearing the voice of Curt Gowdy carries one back to a simpler time when sports as a whole was much more enjoyable and just fun to watch and/or listen to.

I remember watching this entire World Series; I was 13 years old then. I cheered on the Red Sox even though they lost the Series in 7 games. The Red Sox played a great game and Series against the Reds.

This is when I loved MLB.

The voice of PA Sherm Feller was worth price of admission.

Excellent color scheme! And the stirrups! That's the way stirrups should be worn. Super Big League! Lots of Hall of Famers in this World Series. And Terrence Mann may have been in attendance.

I listened to many of the Reds games on radio during the middle 1970s. The announcers were Marty Brenneman and Joe Nuxall.

RIP, Anyone at this game age 50+, all the umpires, Sherm Feller, Bowie Kuhn, Curt Gowdy, Sparky Anderson, Darrell Johnson, Joe Morgan, Denny Doyle...sure there are others...

El Tiante's finest hour.

I wonder if fans who grew up in the 30’s felt the same way about baseball in the mid 70’s.

[@Trucker1957]

Baseball as it was meant to be played simple and unadulterated. Fenway park without ads plastered everywhere. Television without the stupid ticker running non stop. Announcers that don't talk about stats every second. What a breath of fresh air to watch.

I was 13 when I watched the WS series in 1975 and I remember thinking how old the players looked. Now I'm 55 and the same players look like kids. Time does some weird shit man...

God was this a great series!! So many great players.

[@JayDogTitan-he6wo]

I watched this series as an 11 year old with my mom who loved the Cincinnati Reds, Great series.

[@zarkondutche1213]

I was 8 years old in 1975. My first world series. None more dramatic, but cubs 2016 win satisfied my heart. I was a child but i saw ernie banks last game.

Curt Gowdy promoing a new show called Saturday Night debuting that week.

I remember watching this game as a ten year old kid. I also recall my dad installing insulation in the attic during this game and I could hear him cursing up a storm up there. I miss you dad. R.I.P.

[@bubblerap7176]

No matter how many times I watch this, the Sox still lose. No wonder I so rarely watch any of this series. But fortunes change, and now Ive seen the Sox win FOUR world series while the lowly Reds live in squalor. Ya got to love it.

Griffey had 38 infield hits in '75. Let that sink in.
