That's not the Ohio Cup (that cup is silver and attached to a wooden base). They said on the news last night that one of the players (I think they said it was Ludwick) brought this cup into the clubhouse sometime around July-ish as a symbol of their goal to win every single series they played this season. Apparently they brought it out from that point on every time they won that particular series and I think it went on the road with them too. I guess last night was another good reason to bring that thing out!
Congrats to the Reds and I hope we get to celebrate even more during RED October!!!

This was the first time I've been at the game for a clincher too. Came down for Oktoberfest and took a friend from Virginia to the game. Little kids were crying with joy under the power stacks. Celebrated at the Hofbrauhaus afterward. If you saw a guy in a white Bayern Munich jersey wearing a green Tiroler hat hanging in the Sun Deck, that was me.

HUUUUGE Congratulations Reds! Thanks Bob and Walt. Get well Dusty!
Now there's much more work to be done! Go get'em boys!

A huge thanks to the Reds for making this such an enjoyable summer! Thanks to Bob, Walt, and everyone else that deals with this organization. Also a huge thanks to this training staff for keeping these guys healthy. Health has been a huge key for this team other than a couple guys. Also get well Dusty! Cant wait to see the toothpick and the wristbands come October.

I just got another email this morning telling me it is delayed indefinitely.
I ordered the shirt within a couple hours of when they were available.
I screwed up and didn't get one quick enough in 2010 and they ran out. Now I am getting the run around in 2012.
The Tshirt Gods must hate me.

Yes you can order all of it here. They have 5 different styles of shirts.

But right now everything I ordered is backordered.
FYI: They have some clinch gear at Meijer and the most expensive t-shirt is $18 (and it's a great design too). You might want to start keeping an eye out around town for stuff if you're from the tri-state area because there are some really great shirts turning up out there. I bought a red one at Meijer and the official grey one from the Team Shop last night after I discovered that the women's style was actually going to fit me.
