As a Sox fan, the 90 Reds are one of my favorite teams of my lifetime. Like the 05 Sox, they were one-year juggernauts. The 80s and early 90s were somewhat low on power hitting. Two guys that hit HRs in this game, Dunston and Sandberg, had really dead level swings. Sandberg would hit 40 homers this year and win the MVP. He was probably the only Cub that got better from 89. Eric Davis was a HOFer cut short by unusual health problems. 1990 was his last year of being a star. We need more guys like him that hit for power but also steal bases. F*** analytics, run.

Always enjoyed Reds and cubs not the same as the Cubs and Cardinals special event when they weren't in the same division. However I personally like it because I'm in Fort Wayne Indiana which is Cub territory but there's tons of Red fans. It's about the same distance from both cities roughly halfway between the two. So something special here. Back in the day it was a big rivalry originally Because Chicago and St Louis roughly the same distance from Chicago and Cincinnati. Course it's different with Illinois and Missouri being next to each other. And also to Cardinals are such an elite team are Cubs are kind of lovable losers. In Reds are somewhere in the middle so it wasn't quite the same dynamic. And laterv when are the Cubs and the Reds were both in the NL Central after they realigned the divisions Reds were never any good so it still wasn't the same thing.

I think considering how awful or mediocre the Cubs were in 1987, 1988, 1990, 1991... that the 1989 is the fluke season. They were always mediocre, and had 1 year way above their level
@guyincognito320

@@MrTCHOSS This. The AL East was just weak in 89. Offensively the Cubs of the late 80s/early 90s were very weak at SS, C, 3B, LF, CF. In 89 they just got lucky with Walton and Smith and Mitch Williams and a couple others. Really all you need is timely hitting and a bullpen. If a bullpen gets hot enough you can ride that all the way - just look at this Reds team, also one and done like the 89 Cubs. Much later the Royals would win two pennants in a row with a mediocre team that was really clutch, plus a godlike bullpen.
