Red Reporter Veteran's Committee HOF Vote

232323232_7ffp432_3enu_3d3238_3e_3b86_3e_3a6_3a_3ewsnrcg_3d3236633597446nu0mrj_medium

Our favorite Big Red Machine shortstop is on the ballot this winter for election to Cooperstown. I'm not sure what we can do, if anything, to help his cause but I think we should do something. RedReporters everywhere can pitch in somehow but I am not sure how. Any ideas? Maybe an letter writing/email campaign? Here are a couple of articles about this seasons vote. The first is from ESPN and the second is from the Hall of Fame. Personally I think Davey should be in. He was the best player at his position for over a decade and deserves to be the next member of the Big Red Machine inducted. And wouldn't it be sweet to see him and Larkin go in together? We should all be in Cooperstown the weekend of July 22-25 to hopefully see two great Reds go in!! The results of the vote will be announced on December 6th.

Red Reporter This Day in Reds History - October 11


On this date in 1972 the Reds beat the Pirates 4-3.  Also, on this date in 1968, the Reds broke the heart of a nine year old kid and gave him his first real lesson in the business of the game.

With the Reds now enjoying the off season this will be the last daily posting of TDiRH. I have a few already written and will post those when they come up. I just wanted to say thank you to all of you for being enablers and indulging a Reds fan in a life time obsession. And if is alright with the Big Guy (Slyde) I will bring this back on 3/31/11 when the Reds open the season as defending NL Central Champions. Hope Springs Eternal - Go Reds!

Red Reporter Walking Off - Cincinnati Reds Playoff Style


This great season has been highlighted by some amazing moments. From the first win of the season back on April 8 courtesy of a Jonny Gomes walk-off home run against the Cardinals to the NL Central clinching J-bomb unleashed by Jay Bruce on the 28th of September against the Astros, this has been a season to remember for Reds fans everywhere. Based on what we've seen this season I'm sure we will see more of the same in the coming weeks. Since we can't look ahead, here is a look back at the walk-off wins in Reds playoff history.

Red Reporter The Final Day of a Great Season



I just wanted to say thanks to all who make Redreporter go. This has been a great season made more enjoyable by all you folks do. I can't wait to read the recaps, the reposters, the Sabr stuff that I don't fully understand and the SIS columns. The amazing daily original content, statistical breakdown and just flat-out- sense of Reds community is unrivaled. Again, a sincere thanks for a great site, a great season, and some great friends!  On to the Playoffs!

With his home run yesterday Drew Stubbs became the 14th Red to join the 20 Home Run / 20 Stolen Base Club. Coupled with his 25 stolen bases he has the 32nd 20/20 season in Reds history. Here's hoping he continues to progress and improve and become a force in the Reds outfield for the next several years.

On this date in 1961 the Reds beat the Pirates 10-1.

 

Also against the Pirates, in 1959, Vada Pinson picked up his 200th hit of the season. At age 21 he is still the youngest Red to ever accomplish the feat. With a double to left Vada became the first Red since Frank McCormick in 1939 to record 200 hits in a single season.
