Funny you mention this. If you remember correctly, we were forecasted to lose. My step dad was an asshole. He knew I loved the Reds because I watched them every chance I got. He told me that the A's was going to destroy Cincinnati. It pissed me off. I was 24 yrs old in 1990. The A's were heavy favorites. I told that POS (out of anger) I'll bet you $100 that the Reds sweep them (*******). He laughed and took the bet.
He's dead and he never paid me. *******! I really didn't think the Reds would do a sweep, but DAMN! What a series.
