As my annual vacation I go to Cooperstown for the inductions. When Sparky was giving his induction speech I found we agreed on something. He said "baseball is a great game and if you don't like it GET OUT".

A friend who's a huge Reds fan and went to a number of events featuring Sparky over the years, says he was always unbelievably nice to everyone he came in contact with.
Here's Sparky's bat from the late 70s and his jersey as a coach with the Padres just before taking the Reds job. Greg http://www.baseballbasement.com |
