Bill Brown said, just before Craig Biggio stepped in leading off the bottom of the 1st, that the Reds can regroup for "next year" if they get healthy. They ended up winning the World Series in 1990 lol
I have been telling everyone that Pete Rose deserves credit for putting the World Championship 1990 Reds Team together. Lou Piniella stepped into a Championship Team i a similar fashion when Jack McKeon did it with the Florida Marlins the year after leaving the Reds.
Difference between 1989 and 2019? Even though the Pete Rose gambling scandal is full blown at the time of this game, Bill Worrell keeps it baseball related regarding Pete Rose. He mentions that he's had issues on and off the field. But he didn't elaborate the off-field issues. In 2019, everyone wants to Jerry Springer up sports.
It's funny the Bills talked about the dome and how great it is and a few years later, after Drayton bought the team, everyone started complaining about the dome.
The Astros on HSE. It didn’t get any better for me as a kid.
No place more fun to watch baseball than in the Astrodome:)
As a Browns fan who watched football in the 80's I thought the Astrodome was a sweet environment for football as well.
As a Chicago Cubs fan, I hated the Astrodome because it always felt that they always got clobbered there.
Eric Davis was a superstar. What a talent. Hank Aaron - like bat speed

what a game for eric "the red" davis
One of the most talented players I have ever seen when healthy. Nothing he could not do on a baseball field.

Was ED seeing the ball well at that time or what? Low inside curve ball. Waited on it and smokes it
Good ol' Bill Worrell! Still doing Rockets games, home only though!
Bill Worrell (C) & Bill Brown (PBP) 1-3/7-9
Milo Hamilton (PBP) & Worrell (C) 4-6
Wow, didn't know Rhoden was ever an Astro.
kevin bass...theres a name i haven't heard in years
Watching this game. Who would have though the future HOF would be Biggio
I forgot that Craig Biggio was the catcher before he was the 2nd Baseman.
Thanks+ for the game.
Grazie per il gioco.

always thought afternoon games in the dome were better that night....it was just awesome with the sunlight and a/c
So nice to watch a game and not see a dozen billboards behind home plate
I hope for Astros fans' sake that Cabell's career in the booth was very short lived.
KokotTheMonkey it was... god he was so terrible
five years..but I am assuming he barely was seen considering Larry Dierker was in the booth as well
I love when you upload games from 1989.Do you have any with the Padres or Athletics?

Amazing first pitch
Best pitchers park ever
Remember when Milo would call Chris Sabo Snoopy?
gargantuan good!!
HSE!!!!
Classic look Astros. The uniforms after this just didn't do it for me
Dibble what a bum
He had an awfully successful major league career for a bum
Put the Astros back in the national league and get rid of interleague
You can even hear all of the trash can banging in this game
Ah I remember the days when the Astros didn't cheat....good times.
