    With their win today, the current Reds remain 2 GB the 1982 Reds'. On this date in '82, the Reds beat the Houston Astros by a score of 3-2 as Frank Pastore outdueled Bob Knepper to get the win. Davey Concepcion doubled, tripled, and stole a base to lead the Reds, who improved to 5-11 on the season.

    The current Reds drop 2.5 GB the 1982 Reds , who won on this day in '82 over the Astros in the Dome by score of 4-3 in 10 innings.

    The Reds had to come from behind in this one. Trailing 3-1 entering the ninth inning, the Reds rallied to tie the game against Astros' reliever Joe Sambito with two runs in the ninth on PH Mike Vail's 2-run single. The Reds added one in the tenth off of loser Randy Moffitt(Billie Jean King's brother). The game-winner was plated on a sacrifice fly by Davey Concepcion, who also had three hits on the day. Perennial Reds' pain in the @ss , Terry Puhl, had a double , a homer, and drove in three for the Astronomicals. There were six errors in this game, including four by the Reds. The Reds' record improved to 6-11 on the season.

    Also, this game was not a well- umpired game from behind home plate. How do I remember that detail after 40 years? I don't have to. Eric Gregg, the round mound of inconsistency called balls and strikes on this day.

    That lineup for the 1982 team in the OP included 5 members of the Reds Hall of Fame. Granted they were past their prime but that lineup was far more talented than the 2022 version

    Freaking 1982 and members of that team get mentioned more thanthe good Reds teams around here. Bob should have a 1982 bobblehead tribute night. Bet it’d pack some long lost Redzoners into the stadium since it appears to be an annual item of interest.

    The 1932 Reds were way worse than the 1982 team and the franchise as a whole was more pathetic than them (and this team) by a far margin.

    For sure. But recency is making 1982 prime time fodder right now. This could finally be the year all of the annual 100 loss predictors can finally be right! I demand the trifecta bobblehead of Clint Hurdle, Duane Walker and Paul Householder in their honor. It can serve as a constant reminder that if you predict something enough years in a row, it’s bound to eventually happen.

    Taking a further look into the 32 team. I didn’t realize Eppa Rixey was around that long.

    It was a touchstone year for many. The death of the BRM; indeed it was a traumatic year. It also was the year that I left Ohio for the Bay Area, my biggest memories of that season were fading billboards on the Oakland highway for "Billyball" at the coliseum, Joe Morgan hitting a HR against the Dodgers to screw their season and The Brewers losing to the Cardinals in the WS. So I guess I'm a little less traumatized.

    Then he started an Insurance Company in Terrace Park... YA Tittle had one in Palo Alto. Good name business for the ex-athlete before big salaries

    32 team did have Lombardi and Babe Herman who were very good players. The pitching stats don't look all that bad either. The overall hitting looks very weak. Especially so in an era the hitters flourished.

    Watching the BRM fade into history had to be tough. The first baseball I remember watching occurred in 1985, but I was so young those memories are just fleeting glimpses more than anything. My Reds fandom began in earnest that year at the Watermill on Harrison Avenue. A Reds/Cardinals game was playing and my aunt who worked there said Pete Rose was her favorite player and was on the Reds so I needed to cheer for them. That place was leveled, and unfortunately, we lost my aunt last month. But that started my Reds fandom. By 1990 I was well aware of the BRM from my dad and uncles. I was in such awe that Griffey Sr., a guy from that stories team, was still around and on the Reds. The passage of time is so much different when youre younger. Now I know that 1975 and 1976 were closer in time to 1990 than 1990 is to today. Just makes you think, the last time the Reds won it all, I was a 1st grader. I’ll turn 39 in October. Crazy stuff

    Lombardi was a rookie though and Herman was flipped right after the season because the Reds were broke. As for the hitting Crosley was still playing as a deadball park and that had to hurt.

    1982 was just a big belly drop. You have remember that in 1981 the Reds had the best record in baseball but didn't go to the playoff because of the stupidity of the split season. Literally first to worst. Yes the BRM players were aging and some had already left like Rose. Perez and Morgan. You knew it was just a matter of time anyway. But Dick Wagner decided to move the process along and let go Foster, Griffey and Dave Collins. The entire outfield! If he had kept just a couple of those guys it may have been a smoother transition in the 80's. IIRC the Reds had a decent pipeline of prospects that eventually made it. So 1982 was really tough to take especially for someone like me who had seen the Reds have nothing but success for most of those years I had been a fan, since 1971. I knew that year how the other half felt who always had bad teams.

    Collins left as a free agent, and Foster and Griffey Sr. were traded. The problem was they got no actual building blocks back in either trade. Sound familiar?
    ...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
