SUMMARY On Tuesday, October 30 at 1:30 P.M., you will make brief remarks in the Rose Garden saluting the 1990 World Champion Cincinnati Reds. Among those attending will be the entire Reds team except for Eric Davis and Chris Sabo; Bill Bennett, Congressmen Jim Bunning, Paul Gillmore, Bill Gradison, and Tom Luken; Ben Mizell, and the members of this year's four championship Babe Ruth League teams. II. DISCUSSION The attached remarks (6 minutes, cards) pay tribute to the Reds' recent sweep of the defending world champion Oakland A's. The Reds led their division from wire to wire, defeated the Pittsburg Pirates to win the National League pennant, and then swept the A's for their first world championship since 1976. (Smith/Garmey) October 29, 1990 5 P.M. REDS PRESIDENTIAL REMARKS: CINCINNATI REDS ROSE GARDEN WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1990 1:30 P.M. Secretary Bennett, Marge Schott, Lou Piniella, players, coaches, and official family of the 1990 Cincinnati Reds. // Congressmen Bill Gradison, Tom Luken, and Paul Gillmore from Ohio. From across the river in Kentucky, a Congressman who's played good old country hardball -- Jim Bunning. Wilmer "Vinegar Bend" Mizell. Our World Series umpires: Larry Barnett, Rocky Roe, Jim Quick, Ted Hendry, Frank Pulli, Randy Marsh, and also Bruce Froemming [FREM-ing], who can't be with us. // Also, I might mention that this is the fortieth anniversary of Babe Ruth League Baseball -- and we're lucky to have the four Babe Ruth championship teams of 1990 with us. They come from Staten Island / Youngstown, Ohio / and, yes, two from a city whose team visited here last October. Oakland, California. / Best wishes from the most charismatic member of the Bush family. / You know the term "MVP" -- with us, it stands for Most Valuable Pooch. Schottzie, Millie sends her love. // Let me welcome you to the White House. And to America's salute to the Cincinnati Reds -- a team of heart, which achieved its impossible dream. // ( (Marge, I know Bobby Brown is President of the American League. Forgive me, but I'd like to tell a story about how as a 2 player for the New York Yankees, his roomate was my favorite philosopher, Yogi Berra.)) ((Bobby and Yogi were reading late at night in their hotel room. Bobby was reading a medical journal -- Yogi, a comic book. Finally, Yogi put the magazine down, turned off the light, and said, "Bobby, my book had a happy ending. How did your's come out?") ) 11 Members of this newest Big Red Machine -- the story of the 1990 Reds had the happiest of endings. A world championship for America's oldest baseball franchise / for some of America's best baseball fans / for a team that looked its opponents in the eye // and made those opponents blink. ((You know, usually when I'm told I'll be having a White House meeting with some heavy hitters, it turns out to be the Congressional leadership. // But not today.) Today, we're talking baseball. And a team that won ninety- one games in the regular season -- leading wire to wire, the first time in league history. // We're talking the team that beat a marvelous Pirates club in the playoffs. // I hope our guided missiles are as straight as Eric Davis' throw to nab Bobby Bonilla. // This is the team that swept the defending champion Oakland A's in an unforgettable World Series. What moments you've given us. And what memories we have. of one of the greatest bullpens in baseball's tide of times. ((You know how the Reds spell relief? It's easy. N-A-S-T-Y.)) // And of the Series' Most Valuable Player: Jose Rijo [REE- 3 hoh], yielding all of one run in 15 plus innings. Jose: Maybe you can lower interest rates. 11 Then, there's Billy Hatcher -- seven straight hits, and 9 for 12 in the Series. I'm just glad I'm not running against you in the elections next week. And, yes, Eric the Red, whom I wish continued recovery. // When I talk to Mr. Gorbachev about offensive weapons, I'm going to tell him No. 44's bat is not negotiable. // Go anywhere they love the Reds. Go to Dayton or Louisville or Des Moines or Siler city. They'll tell you about heroics too numerous to mention. of Glenn Braggs and Barry Larkin, fielding brilliantly. And Joe Oliver -- winning Game Two with a memorable base hit. And Chris Sabo, who's on a tour of Japan. // This morning I talked to NASA. /// Chris' Game Three home runs are still in orbit. // And Paul O'Neill and Herb Winningham and, yes, Tom Browning // the man who combined a World Series and the birth of a son -- batting 1,000 along the way. // Each of these men -- so many others -- were dedicated to a cause -- bringing the world championship back to the banks of the Ohio. You achieved that goal. / And Lou [Piniella] -- let me say: There were times in the last month I could have used you to help pilot my budget through Congress the way you piloted the Reds. // All of you showed why two of the most beautiful words in any language are, simply, "Play ball." Reds' broadcaster Joe Nuxhall often says, "This is the 01' Lefthander rounding third, and heading for home." This year, 4 home for one of sport's greatest franchises was the 1990 world championship. So let me leave you by quoting another Reds' announcer, Marty Brennaman: "This one belonged to the Reds." When it comes to baseball, Cincinnati is truly Number One. Thank you for coming here. Congratulations. And God bless the United States of America. # # # # -40th Anmensary 27, 1990 More w.s stuff. Youngiloun statent luite uniuma Run October (Smith/Garmey) 11 A.M. REDS Cin.

His only games at Riverfront Stadium came in the 1976 World Series, while playing against the Reds for the New York Yankees. As a player, Lou had a .291 lifetime average for his 18 seasons in the major leagues, mostly with Kansas City (1969-73) and the 41 Yankees (1974-84). He coached and later managed N.Y., compil- RED ing a 224-193 record as manager of the Yankees (1986-88). 2 Piniella was confident that, despite his lack of familiarity with the National League, he would be able to make a successful move to the NL. And the Reds' record proves he was right! To help his transition, Piniella and Gen. Mgr. Bob Quinn hired a staff of very able coaches with solid NL experience. Jackie Moore was hired as dugout coach after 3 seasons as third base coach for the Montreal Expos. Long-time Cincinnati player and coach Tony Perez was retained from the Reds' previous coaching staff to be the hitting coach and first base coach under Piniella. Sam Perlozzo was hired as the Reds' new third base coach after spending the 3 previous years as the Mets' third base coach. Larry Rothschild joined the staff as bullpen coach after serving as a roving pitching instructor in the Reds' farm system for 4 years. And Stan Williams was brought in as the pitching coach after many years as a big league coach and scout, including 1984 as pitching coach with the Reds under Vern Rapp. (Left to right) Coach Sam Perlozzo, Coach Stan Williams, Coach Jackie Piniella and his coaches are a winning combination and an Moore, Manager Lou Piniella, Coach Tony Perez, Coach Larry Rothschild. important part of the Reds' success in 1990.

Pumpkin Pie Big Boy® Brawny Lad Buddy Boy Swiss Miss Strawberry Pie Fuel For Thought From Marathon Did you know that some of today's 4-cylinder engines produce more power than the 8-cylinder engines of the '50s and '60s? Improvements like computers, multi-valve port fuel injectors, and turbos make smaller engines more efficient, thereby creating more power. But, these finely tuned engines can lose their performance capabilities if they are not well maintained. If you have one of these engines, use Super-M® Premium gasoline. It's specially formulated to get the maximum out of your high performance engine. Super-M Premium has PBA-4® detergent additive, which cleans up port fuel injectors and keeps valves clean. You might say Super-M is an important part of any preventative maintenance program for your vehicle.

The teams that question is simple: Bench's ninth and what they were doing when I hit then headed to Cincinnati for the rest inning game-tying homer against that home run against Pittsburgh." of the series. The same pattern evolved at Riverfro Stadium, with the Pirates winning, 3-2 then the Reds rebounding for a 7-1 victory in Game 4. The stage was set for Game 5 on Wednesday afternoon, October 11. The visitors took a 2-0 lead in the second inning against Cincinnati starting pitcher Don Gullett. The Reds cut the lead in half with a run in the third inning off Pirates' starter Steve Blass. BENCH Pittsburgh made it 3-1 with a run in the 4th inning, knocking out Gullett. The Reds' bullpen then shut down the Pirates' offense as Pedro Borbon (2 innings), Tom Hall (3) and Clay Carroll (1) teamed to pitch scoreless ball the res of the game. Cesar Geronimo's fifth inning solo homer off Blass brought the Reds to within one run, 3-2. That lead held up as the game went to the bottom of the ninth. Pirates' manager Bill Virdon brought in the ace of his bullpen, Dave Giusti, for the final inning. Giusti recorded 22 saves during the regular season and saved Game 3 of the NLCS. The first batter he faced was Bench. Bench homered to right field off Pittsburgh's Dave Giusti to tie the fifth and deciding game of the 1972 "My mom had come down to the rai National League Championship Series. *40* near the dugout as I was in the on deck circle," Johnny recalls. "She said, 'Hit me a home run. I sort of glowed. I thought, Mom, I wish it was that easy." Giusti jumped ahead of the Reds' catcher with two quick strikes. One of those strikes was a long drive to left field that hooked foul. "He got a pitch up to me," says Bench. "I hit it hard, into the green seats, just foul." The count went to one ball and two strikes. The description of what happened next - as called by former Reds radio announcer AI Michaels - - is nearly as memorable as the event itself: Photo by Terry Armor "One and two. The pitch to Bench.

I had the with his feet in the air, as Foster scored," "To a lot of people, it's the biggest kind of season that I felt like I was going says Bench. "It was bedlam.

"Tony got the base hit and, WOW, things really started to fall into place," Bench remembers. "We really had a CINCINNATI chance. We weren't sure we were going to win it at that time, but just the idea that we were back in it was what we wanted." The rally continued as Denis Menke singled, advancing Foster to second base and knocking out Giusti. Bob Moose took over on the mound for Pittsburgh.

She brought in a new management team - General Manager Bob Quinn and Field Manager Lou Piniella - and made major commitments in player sal- aries in an effort to put her team back in the World Series in the '90s. The Reds provided exciting baseball during the '80s and achieved the finan- cial stability that was another of Mrs. Schott's goals, attracting more than 9.8 million fans into Riverfront Stadium over the five seasons. In addition, she hosted the 1988 Major League All-Star game. That not only gave Reds' fans a special baseball treat, but raised about $190,000 for the Cincinnati Zoo. Providing Reds' fans with quality entertainment has been the top priority dur- ing her tenure as owner of the Reds. Mrs. Schott, a native and sixth generation resident of Cincinnati, had been a Limited Partner in the team since 1981 and then became the General Partner of the ownership group on Dec. 21, 1984. She became President and Chief Executive Officer on July 8, 1985. In addition to the enjoyment of watching the Reds on the field, Mrs. Schott has had some thrills away from the Stadium as well. In 1989, she had lunch at the White House with President Bush; was a special honoree at a Women in Business luncheon during the President's Inauguration Week festivities; and made a baseball visit to Japan. Among other highlights were a 1988 visit to the Vatican, where she presented the Pope with a Reds' jacket; a feature interview on the highly regarded "60 Minutes" TV show; and a salute by Savvy Magazine as the operator of one of the 40 largest businesses in the country to be headed by a woman. In Dec., 1986, she was among 85 women entrepreneurs from all over the country who were honored by President Reagan at a White House reception. Earlier that year, she was named Woman of the Year by the American Legion Auxiliary at its national convention. Mrs. Schott was inducted into the Ohio Women's Hall of Fame in Nov., 1985, for her achievements in business, industry and athletics. A year earlier, she was honored as one of the 1984 Women of the Year in Cincinnati, cited for her avid support of the arts, as a philanthropist to many organizations and as a trustee for several colleges. She is well-known for her role as hostess for the Reds' Rally, a major fund-raiser for the Children's Heart Association at Chil- dren's Hospital and for her work with the famed Cincinnati Zoo. Mrs. Schott became a businesswoman by necessity when her husband, Charles, died in 1968, leaving her in charge of a business empire that included such divergent holdings as an auto agency, cement, truck and brick companies and real estate holdings. She has since added holdings of her own. It took her 2½ years to convince General Motors to make her the first U.S. woman ever to be awarded a major metropolitan area G.M. dealership. Later, she became the first woman ever named to the board of trustees of the Cincin- nati Chamber of Commerce. Mrs. Schott is one of only three women currently involved in primary owner- ship of a major league baseball team, joining Mrs. Joan Kroc of the San Diego Padres and Mrs. Jean Yawkey of the Boston Red Sox, who took over their teams on the deaths of their husbands. 4 STEPHEN H.

DETERMINING BATTING AVERAGE: Divide the number of at bats into the number of hits. DETERMINING AN EARNED RUN AVERAGE: Multiply the number of earned runs by nine; take the number and divide it by the number of innings pitched. DETERMINING SLUGGING PERCENTAGE: Divide the total bases of all safe hits by the total times at bat (At bats do not include walks, sacrifices, hit by pitcher, or times awarded first base because of interfer- ence or obstruction). DETERMINING ON-BASE PERCENTAGE: Divide hits plus total walks plus hit-by-pitch by at bats plus total walks plus hit-by-pitch and sacrifice flies. (Times awarded first base on interference or obstruc- tion are not figured into on-base percentage.) DETERMINING PERCENTAGE OF GAMES WON AND LOST: Divide the number of games won by the total games won and lost. CONSECUTIVE HITTING STREAKS: A consecutive hitting streak shall not be terminated if the plate appearance results in a base on balls, hit batsman, defensive interference or a sacrifice bunt. A sacri- fice fly shall terminate the streak. CONSECUTIVE-GAME HITTING STREAKS: A consecutive-game hitting streak shall not be terminated if all the player's plate appearances (one or more) result in a base on balls, hit batsman, defensive interference or a sacrifice bunt. The streak shall terminate if the player has a sacrifice fly and no hit. CONSECUTIVE-GAME PLAYING STREAK: A consecutive-game playing streak shall be extended if the player plays one half-inning on defense, or if he completes a time at bat by reaching base or being put out. A pinch-running appearance only shall not extend the streak. If a player is ejected from a game by an umpire before he can comply with the requirements of this rule, his streak shall continue. TRADING REGULATIONS: Players are available on waivers in reverse order of standings, at the time waivers expire, if more than 30 days after start of the season; otherwise in reverse order of standings at close of preceding season. Waivers are required for any inter-league or intra-league assignment during the period beginning Aug. 1 and ending at 5 p.m. ET the day after the end of the season.

That first professional team, led by Harry and George Wright, played on a spot where Union Terminal on Cincinnati's near West Side now stands. Its first recorded game was a practice contest against a "Picked Nine" from Cincinnati, April 17, 1869, which was won by the Red Stockings, 24-15. After six more games of this first "pre-season" the Reds embarked on their famous tour. The first regu- lar game was scheduled against the Antioch Nine on May 31, but that became the first rainout in professional baseball history. The first official game took place the next day, June 1, 1869 as the Red Stockings defeated the Mansfield Indepen- dents, 48-14. That first Red Stockings team that was organized by Harry Wright, a Newport, Ky., jeweler, was fabulous. During the first two years of play the team went 130 consecutive games without a loss before the Brooklyn Atlantics finally beat the Red Stockings in June of 1870. In 1876 the National League was founded and the Red Stockings became a charter member, although the club dropped out of the league in 1881 for 9 years because the league would not permit sale of beer in the park. The Red Stockings joined the American Association for the 1882-89 seasons, but rejoined the National League in 1890. Cincinnati also had a club in the Union Association in 1884. The turn of the century saw one of the most colorful men ever associated with the team take over the presidency of the club. August "Garry" Herrmann was the club president from 1902 until 1927 when he was forced to retire because of blind- ness. A host of famous players paraded through the Herrmann regime. Noodles Hahn was a standout pitcher and Cy Seymour won the Reds' first batting cham- pionship, hitting .377 in 1905, a mark that still stands in the Cincinnati record book. And later came Edd Roush, an all-time great centerfielder, and Heinie Groh, the famous third baseman who used a bottle bat. They formed the nucleus of Cincinnati's first pennant winner in 1919 and then beat the Chicago White Sox in the World Series. Players such as Eppa Rixey, who holds the club record with 179 career wins and Bubbles Hargrave, the first catcher ever to win a batting title, kept the Reds in the running during the 20's, but there wasn't another pennant until 1939. After Herrmann resigned control of the club in the late 20's, Sidney Weil assumed command. When the depression crippled him, Powel Crosley pur- chased the Reds, more for civic purposes than any other cause. It was strongly rumored that the Cincinnati franchise might be moved and Crosley felt that the city needed a major league baseball team. Crosley, the famous radio tycoon, was sold on the franchise by Larry Mac- Phail, the club's general manager. MacPhail, who had made a name for himself at Columbus, was one of the early promoters and opened up a new era of baseball when the Reds became the first team to play at night. Lights were installed at Crosley Field and the Reds and Phillies met in the first night game on May 24, 1935. Two years later a new chapter opened in Cincinnati as Warren Giles was named the club's general manager. Although the Reds finished last in Giles' first year, the team began to move in 1938, jumping to fourth. By 1939 the club had matured into the National League's best. The Reds won back-to-back pennants in '39-'40 and captured the World Series in 1940, beating the Detroit Tigers in an exciting seven-game series. Some of the great names of Reds' history were on those clubs. Paul Derringer, Bucky Walters and Johnny Vander Meer were well-known pitchers. Ernie Lom- bardi, Frank McCormick and Walters were Most Valuable Player winners. World War II and age caught up with the Reds in the 40's and the club began rebuilding in the late 40's and early 50's. Ewell Blackwell became the first pitcher to pitch in six consecutive All-Star games. Ted Kluszewski was signed off the Indiana University campus. 102 But Giles left the Reds in 1951 and was named president of the National League. His successor was Gabe Paul who put together a powerful hitting team in the mid-fifties. The Reds nearly won the pennant in 1956, losing by two games to Brooklyn, but the fans fell in love with this team. The Reds hit the million mark in paid attendance for the first time and in '56 they tied the NL record for the most team home runs, 221. Birdie Tebbetts was named Manager of the Year. Fred Hutchinson took command of the Reds in 1959 and in '61 they startled most baseball "experts" by winning the NL pennant. Frank Robinson, who had been Rookie of the Year in 1956, was Most Valuable Player, and Vada Pinson nearly won the batting title. Under Hutch, who died of cancer in 1964, the Reds remained close. They won 98 games in 1962, but finished third. They came within one game in 1964. Rumors again spread in 1966 that the Reds would leave Cincinnati. They were silenced quickly, however, when a group of businessmen, headed by Francis L. Dale, purchased the Reds and pledged allegiance to the city with a 40-year lease, thus assuring construction of a new stadium. The group named Bob Howsam General Manager in 1967, and six years later he moved up to the club presidency. Sparky Anderson became the manager in 1970 and guided the team for nine seasons, leading the team to five Western Division titles; four National League pennants; and two World Championships. The Reds moved into Riverfront Stadium June 30, 1970, ending a long associ- ation with Crosley Field, and before that Redland Field. A total of 4,543 games were played at the old park which was officially dedicated April 11, 1912. It was Redland Field then and became Crosley Field after Crosley purchased the Reds. Riverfront Years Reds fans said goodbye to Crosley Field and the first century of baseball's oldest professional team June 24, 1970 and six days later, a little over two years after the first spadeful of dirt was turned, Riverfront Stadium opened to a crowd of over 50,000 cheering fans. From 1970, when the team won its first Western Division title, through 1979, when it won its sixth Divisional race, the Reds won more games and more titles than any other major league team. The Reds piled up 953 regular season victories in the ten years of the 1970's, an average of 95.3 per season with a .593 winning percentage and an impressive mark of consistency. Reds fans saw a total of 12 championships by the Reds, six Western Division titles (1970-72-73-75-76-79); four National League titles (1970-72-75-76); and back-to-back World Championships in 1975 and 1976. General Manager Bob Howsam put together this "Team of the 70s" that earned its nickname of the "Big Red Machine." It was a team that excited fans everywhere, building a national following, and lured 21 million fans into Riverfront Stadium in the 10-year period. At the heart of the team were four individuals - Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Tony Perez and Pete Rose - who were totally different in makeup, style and personality, but who were on a common path pointed toward the Hall of Fame. Among them, they provided power, speed, defense, clutch hitting and stability. Bench (1989) was the first to be inducted into the Hall at Cooperstown, followed by Morgan (1990). The Reds so dominated the National League that they won MVP titles 6 times in an 8-year span. Bench won in 1970 and 1972, when he led the N.L. in both homers and RBIs; Rose in 1973 when he led the league in hitting for the third time; Morgan in 1975 and 1976, only the second N.L. player ever to win two con- secutive seasons; and George Foster in 1977, when he set club records with 52 homers and 149 RBIs. Perez was never MVP, but earned an unmatched reputa- tion for clutch hitting. Bench and Perez ranked 1-2 in the majors in RBIs for the '70s. Surrounding them were outstanding players such as Dave Concepcion, who teamed with Morgan to give the Reds a double play combination who each won 5 Gold Gloves; Ken Griffey, who batted .307 in 9 years with the Reds; Foster, who averaged 32 homers and 107 RBIs over a 7-year period; and Cesar Geronimo, a 4-time Gold Glove winner. Other memorable moments came in 1978 when Rose hit in 44 straight games, a modern N.L. record, and Tom Seaver pitched a no-hitter. (continued) 103 In 1981, Seaver became only the fifth pitcher in major league history to record 3,000 strikeouts. It was also a year in which the Reds had the best overall record in baseball, but did not qualify for post-season play because of the split-season, finishing second in both the first half and second half races. The 1983 season marked the return to the Reds of Bob Howsam, architect of the "Team of the 70s." A year later, Howsam brought back Rose, who had been away for nearly six years, as playing manager. Ownership of the team changed hands in December, 1984, when local busi- nesswoman Marge Schott took control as General Partner. Riverfront Stadium was the site of Rose's historic 4,192nd hit, breaking Ty Cobb's all-time major league record, on Sept. 11, 1985 and Tom Browning's per- fect game on Sept. 16, 1988.
