Red Stockings to the Reds : Professional Baseball Then and Now (9781578606276)



150 Years of Baseball in Cincinnati

Celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Cincinnati Reds! Founded in 1869, the Cincinnati Red Stockings were one of the first professional baseball teams in history. This comprehensive and entertaining book, by acclaimed Reds historian Greg Rhodes with Greg Gajus and John Eradi, uses the team's inaugural season as a lens to discuss baseball's beginnings, the game today, and how the sport has changed over time. Approachable for diehard Reds fans and casual baseball fans alike, Red Stockings to the Reds compares the game then to the modern game and introduces readers to why (and how) it is different in many ways yet the same in others. Several of those changes started with the Red Stockings and their ground-breaking first manager, Harry Wright. The authors compare everything from salaries and stats in 1869 to famous players in Reds history, such as Johnny Bench, Ken Griffey Jr., and Pete Rose.
