PrintTonight kicks off our series of Game Threads on the classic Reds games FSN Ohio is running from now until spring training starts.
The Reds need a big win tonight to keep in the division race. They'll take on the Padres tonight in a game to at least split the series. They take on Eric Show, who has been pitching well lately. Good thing we have the young Tom Browning on the mound, who's put up quality starts in 8 of his last 9 starts. Any other storylines happening in this game tonight?
Oh yeah, Cincinnati's favorite son, Pete Rose, is one hit away from breaking Ty Cobb's record. Will tonight be the night? Let's cheer on Charlie Hustle! He's the best!
Tonight's lineups:
Reds
Eddie Milner CF
Pete Rose 1B
Dave Parker RF
Nick Esasky LF
Buddy Bell 3B
Dave Concepcion SS
Bo Diaz C
Ron Oester 2B
Tom Browning P
Padres
Garry Templeton SS
Jerry Royster 2B
Tony Gwynn RF
Steve Garvey 1B
Carmelo Martinez LF
Kevin McReynolds CF
Bruce Bochy C
Kurt Bevacqua 3B
Eric Show P
GO REDS!

I actually have a photograph of that event, taken by my friend who was sitting behind home plate.

Bo Diaz had just gone to a fortune teller to see if today would be the day that Pete got the big hit
He came back confused, but excitedly told his teammates that the Reds would be in the World Series that year playing the Mariners. “But watch out for food poisoning, guys,” he said. “The fortune teller told me not to order a Seattleite dish.”

they'll never win with Pete as the manager
He doesn’t challenge his players enough. It’s almost like his head is somewhere else.

Well for one thing
he needs to get his batting order fixed. Milner at the top, I’m OK with that.
Otherwise, it stinks.

Hey, what do you think about Joe Morgan broadcasting?
Think he’s got a future in it? Also, since Rose set the hit record, he’s going to be a first-ballot HOF’er, right?

The play-by-play guy called Garvey a "sure thing for the HOF" earlier in the broadcast
And Little Joe sounds halfway coherent now.

September 8, 1985 Game at Wrigley
In this September 8, 1985 game at Wrigley, Rose had two at-bats after tying the record off of the Cubs’ Reggie Patterson. In the 7th, Rose hit a hot smash off Lary Sorensen that Shawon Dunston was able to field before throwing Rose out at first. Lee Smith struck out Rose in the 9th. I admired the fact that Rose tried to break the record in Chicago, when he could have taken himself out of the game to ensure that he broke the record in Cincinnati. Of course, he did eventually break the record at Riverfront as it turned out.
