This video put me in baseball heaven. I love learning about teams/dynasties over the course of a decade or so because you get to see the whole picture. From afar the Reds won as many titles as the Yankees and Pirates in the 70s and one less than Oakland. However, when you look at what they were able to accomplish year to year with the roster continuation and instilled culture, it makes them special.
@@joeydbball1729Absolutely. Only seemed to be one thing missing....PITCHING? I can't think of one pitcher on this team and they didn't name one here either. Tom Seaver comes to mind but he didn't join until late 70s. Anyways thanks for this upload. Loved it.
The 75-76 Reds were the best team I've ever seen. They could beat you in all facets of the game. Power, speed, hit for average, defense and timely pitching.
@@joeydbball1729 I hope that you can get the Greats of the Game episode when Tim McCarver interview Orlando Cepeda talking about his days with the 62 Giants and 67-68 Cardinals.😊⚾️

@@LeoWhalen1933 This show was definitely good for that.
The Big Red Machine was the most balanced and consistent team of the 1970’s, for sure.

No beards, mustaches. Old time uniforms, loved those teams.
Thank You for posting this. I really miss this kind of MLB Shows
Me too. Baseball doesn’t need to be that flashy.
