I know that the most important thing to really change the direct of the franchise would be to find a new owner, but for vibes alone I think they need to consider going back to those 90 unis which were a late variation on the Big Red Machine ones obviously. Ditch all the old-fashioned 1869 derived stuff and go minimalist around the peak era of success. Red and white are the only two colors this team needs. It would be great to see Tito come out to manage in a uni that resembles the one he wore in '87.
Attended Game 6 of the NLCS with my pregnant wife. First playoff game attended since '73. What a game thrown by Danny Jackson and the Nasty Boys. Then big Glenn Braggs pulling Carmelo's ball back over the RCF wall...wow.
I got to go to game 7 in the 1972 World Series, at Riverfront. Even though the Reds lost, I had a blast! Would have loved to seen Pete, who made the last out with a deep fly to Left Field, hit it out of the park.
Never been to Japan, but that’s the location I am guessing. Wish I could travel like that.
I’ll never forget the 1990 Series. I was a sophomore in college all the way down in northeast Georgia. The closest I got to attending was driving through town to my home, on fall break while the team was away at Oakland, so that’s that. Thanks again, Chad.
Thank you Chad. What a season and what a post-season as well. Am I right in remembering that the Pirates had a number warning track fly outs that kept me nervous until the last out was recorded in each win??

I’d sign up for that

I can still see Braggs leaping for that ball
thats one that is engraved in my mind.

Nice! I bet that was a blast

That’s closer than I got to attending!

That’s my recollection too, but it may have just been my nerves
