No doubt about it. One of my all-time favorite players. We haven't had a pitcher like that since he left. When you look at that staff from 1961 to 1964, you had a knuckleballer (Purkey), a crafty lefty (O'Toole), a junkball pitcher (Jay) and Maloney. Maloney was the best of the bunch and has the no-hitters to prove it. I defy anyone to find anyone with Maloney's effectiveness in a similar period on the Reds.
LOL. FSN houston is showing the Reds rookies in the hotel wearing halloween costumes (rookie hazings). They're all dressed like girls. Homer looked quite cute in a pink top. :O) Freaking hilarious!
Nice curve from Maloney there.
This Maloney tonight ain't doing too bad.

Tejada grounds out to the cannon-wielding Janish. What a gun that kid's got. I'd love it if his bat can hold it's own.
FSN Ohio showed it too and I was laughing so hard I nearly missed who all was there. I'm still not sure of a couple of the guys but they looked hilarious. Homer looked so funny in that pink hat but Drew Stubbs was my favorite. Gotta love the rookie hazing on the last road trip!

Wright's looking good so far. Back to back K's as Stubbs goes down.
Hey, if I'm gonna jinx anybody...it should be Houston's guys. :O) 4 pitch walk to Janish
Awww....I thought it was another hit for Joey. But the ball bounces right off Berkman's mitt to Matsui. End of the inning.
Joey slacks off and makes out #3, although that would have been funny if that ball had gone off Berkman and into right field, LOL
