Civil Rights Game

Last Saturday I had the opportunity to attend the annual MLB Civil Rights Game in Cincinnati. As baseball honored those who have worked for equality across this country for all. Four of the best players of the 50's and 60's were there. A veritable Mt. Rushmore of baseball studs were on the field as Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Ernie Banks and Frank Robinson were there. Here are some of the pictures. Oh yeah the Reds won 4-3 on a walk-off defensive play at the plate.

Weekend Plan Ramblings

Tonight the plan is to have a nice cookout, clean up the patio area and enjoy the great outdoors. A little fire pit action and listen to the Reds.

















Tomorrow morning make a dump run and then going to see the New Robin Hood movie. It looks pretty good and the reviews have been decent so far.

























After that we head to Cincinnati for the Cardinals & Reds. It is the annual Civil Rights Game and will have some fun festivities going on. The Reds will be honoring their first African-American player, Chuck Harmon.


Both teams will be wearing throw back uniforms that reflect 1947 when the color line was broken in baseball. I'm looking forward to checking out their new Hall of Fame exibits.







Have Great Week End

A good day to be a Reds Fan
