Reds vs A's Game 2 1990 World Series

[Forever Spinning Vinyl]

Most of the full game. Recently uploaded by MLB Vault in honor of Rickey Henderson's passing for some reason. You'd figure that they'd show a win, but they wanted to show the Rickey effect with his first inning run.
Danny Jackson vs Bob Welch
Jack Buck and Tim McCarver with the call along with Pat O'Brien and Jim Kaat in the stands.

I attended this game and sat in the second to last row of the red seats with my dad. Good memory!

And THAT is what baseball is all about. Watching it with friends and family. I'm sure the cheap seats added to the memory. I've been there when it's full. It's amazing.

Saw some awesome stats about Rickey Henderson in a blurb.

Rickey spent more of his career as the all time steals leader than not as the steals leader.
Rickey once went 0-for-0 with 4 walks, 5 steals, and 4 runs, the only 4/5/4 game in history, but didn't get a fifth PA because he was pulled early in a 16-7 blowout loss.
Rickey retired as the franchise leader in steals for the A's and Yankees, teams that were both 103 years old at the time.
Half of Rickey's steals (703) would still be top 10 all time.
The last time Rickey led MLB in steals was 1998, at age 39. In the 24 seasons since, the combined total of the stolen base leaders from each season is 1,385. Rickey had 1,406. - apparently, that was written after the 2022 season

WOW, just wow

He was an all-time great to say the least.
