They played the A’s, ringing a bell yet? Sabo, Davis, Larkin, the Nasty Boys?

Was this like an exhibition thing or something?

I think you mean Dibble, Myers, and Charlton and not the rasslers?

Looks like a minor league logo

Has to be.

Nazi Marge and her dog?

Oh. It was a cartoon series?

 

[volfanbill]

Is that Jimmy Hart

Yes. With the nasty boys. No idea what it has to do with baseball

Much like Schott's Nazi dog, Reds have been crapping on the field ever since 1990...

@GAVol please change thread title to Redlegs Appreciation Thread

TIA

I'm currently reading a book on the Memphis music scene and there is a story about Jimmy Hart because he was in a Memphis band named the Gentry's prior to his wrasslin career

John Olerud telling the Rickey Henderson story is one of the best MLB stories ever.

Definitely one of my favorites

 

[NorCalVol67]

Definitely my least favorite.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Definitely my least favorite.

You didn't like Henderson with the A's?

 

[volfanbill]

So I looked up these “Reds” or “Redlegs”. Apparently they play in Ohio. No wonder no one likes them

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Definitely my least favorite.

Met Rickey Henderson once at Platinum Plus when they were in Memphis for an exhibition against the Cardinals. I was still in HS and he was a complete a-hole

Lou Brock is my favorite, so I never liked Rickey. But he was fun to watch, greatest lead off hitter in the game.

Rickey is/was dumber than rocks and cocky as hell. I have no doubt he was a self absorbed a-hole. But he was great to watch on the field - I love the stolen base (a dying art in modern day ball).

Has anyone noticed that @BigOrangeMojo is the Sparty of the modern day Endzone?
