RIP Bob Watson. A good player.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

he sprinted around the bases to edge out concepcion for the millionth run
Very good player for the Astros. He had good power and would have had more HR's if playing in another park besides the Astrodome. RIP to another cardboard hero of my youth.
Reds Fan Since 1971
I was in the park that day. We all thought Concepcion scored the run. Concepcion homered and sprinted around the bases himself. We fond out a couple innings later that Watson crossed home plate as Concepcion was rounding third.
My other memory of Watson was him running into the wall at Riverfront Stadium and getting seriously injured. Meanwhile, Reds fans were pouring beer on him as he lay there in a heap. That incident is why I don't get into the whole thing about hating Cardinal fans or Cub fans or whatever. That incident showed me that here are A-holes everywhere.
