Thanks for the memories Joe.
Rest In Peace Big Red Machine.
RBI in peace, lil' Joe!
So many iconic moments in this one little clip. Not only is it the game-winning hit by Joe Morgan giving the Reds the lead in Game 7 of one of the greatest World Series in history, but you have Morgan with his classic pumpings of his left elbow before the pitch; you have Pete Rose with a classic Charlie Hustle head-first, pounding the dirt dive into third base; and then the casual, cool demeanor Morgan asks for time, calmly signaling with his hands raised up, not even looking back at the umpire after delivering the biggest hit in the biggest moment of his career while he non-chalantly takes a stroll in the middle infield dirt. Then you have the cameras pan into the Big Red Machine dugout where all the players and coaches are elated knowing they're on the cusp of winning the World Series.
Notice how Morgan went to second on a blooper, that's how you play the game.
MLB the show “moments” brought me here. I agree with guy who said this is underrated moment in baseball. Even though I can’t stand “underrated comment” this was its intended use.
Lynn made a bad throw. In that situation, he wasn't going to get Griffey and Rose already had third. The throw should have went to 2nd in order to keep Morgan out of scoring position. Bad reaction to a bloop single.
A great series.
Watching the old clips, the histle of pete rose from 1st the 3rd and the great slide. Joe Morgan hustling to 2nd base to leg out a double..oh how the game has changed, today both runners would have jogged and been at 1st and 2nd with no hit and run in play.. .. watching these old clips shows you how much better the game was and how much harder they played
Contrary to popular opinion, probably the most important hit of the 1975 World Series!
It was great seeing the Reds wives in their little box waving the pennants. As an eleven yr old, this is when the beatings began cause I could no longer stay calm!
So Joe said to himself "last night Dwight Evans took a potential series winning home run from me so I'm just going to lay my bat in front of a change up and find a hole over shortstop".
Only in baseball……
Best 2B ever!
Why would he throw to third to let Morgan get to 2nd
This was Game 7 top 9th of the World Series, tie game with men on base and 2 out. Look how matter of fact and all business the Reds are here. You wouldn't know this from a game in April. They expected to win and they did
Gary Sheffield batting
Lynn could have had Rose with a little more hustle.
I watched all the Reds W.S
THIS WAS SWEET.
Pete hits the dirt, slides head first into third base.
They always struck me as a smart team. If you have them an opening look out.
His left elbow twitch triggered me.
