I'm from Cincinnati Ohio. My dad started taking me to Reds games when I was 7 years old. I was fortunate enough to see Ken Griffey Play with The Big Red Machine. True Jr. Has a Great swing, but I think that he got it from his dad! Lol. My friend lived across the street from Bobby Tolan(d) and lots of the Reds used to come over his house and have a beer. My brother's played knothole with Johnny Bench's nephew's and Johnny came to a couple of games. I played baseball with Gordy Coleman's son, and Dave Parker's little brother!

I'm convinced this era was MLBs greatest times in my lifetime. Baseball card collecting was awesome, and it had value then. MLB had a LOT of swag and drama. Can you imagine if these players played now, they'd get "plunked" soo many times for their strutting from home runs? -Albert Belle was the villain, -Ken Griffey Jr was the superhero, -Juan Gonzalez was THE first Alex Rodriguez -David Justice was Blair Underwood in a uniform, married to Halle Berry -Mike Piazza The Cool Bat swinging Italian -Bobby Bonilla The overpaid kid from The Sandlot -Barry Bonds X-Men mutant masquerading as a normal human -Cecil Fielder Beer League Softball player in a MLB Uniform

Best era by far. Forget about the juice, nobody knew until 10 years later, it was just a fun era. I’m a little biased, but the greatest World Series ever played in ‘91. The McGuire vs Sosa battle was must-see TV. Me and my buddies would have our own home run derbies and pretend we were McGuire or Griffey or Bonds, trying to copy their swings. Back when groups of kids still did that kind of thing. Love this video, brings back great memories!

The Lurp maybe but i don’t think so. he was the best player of the 1990’s. 3 mvps pre roids, tons of attention and praise. it wasn’t until sosa and mcgwire had an unfair edge on him and made him look like a worse player that he decided to. at least that’s what the well documented story is.

he already started using substances in 1993 or before, maybe not roid yet.... but you can see his body was already huge compared to the 80's, like most players in 90's and early 00's

I was thinking about when this would have been, and I randomly thought "hey, this would be around the same time Davey Allison died, I think"... and surely enough, the ESPN ticket mentions his helicopter accident. Crazy... Anyway, I was in the absolute prime of my love of the game, at this point. 9, going on 10 years old. Time flies.

What an awesome era of baseball. These players were so fun to watch. It seems like baseball has regressed a bit since then. I think Trout, Soto and Acuna would fit in with these guys though..

I couldn't agree more. I think it was the last generation of players who's primary concern was baseball and money still wasn't the be all factor (even though it was creeping in by then). They were fun to watch. It's the last generation that was dominated by African Americans I'd say, a group that gave us some of the best ever. But like I said in another comment, eventually this generation destroyed the game. The 94 strike started it and the steroids finished it. Now the ones that followed immediately after these guys were using them at a higher percentage I think but this group brought them into being common.

And I'm sorry to sound like a relic but my disdain for steroids isn't as much about cheating as is what it did to the game. It completely changed it. It became solely about the HR. Hitting strategy was done because everyone became a power hitter. Pitchers changed how they pitched and I believe the PEDs began causing pitching injuries like never before which in turn created the 100 pitch count and the era of the 160 inning ace. I miss how it was.

@@stevee231 Pitch counts in MLB are crazy now, for instance take Nolan Ryan and Jim Palmer. Ryan pitched 222 Complete games and Jim palmer pitched 211 career complete games. Combined that’s more complete games than the whole MLB has had from 2012- 2021 combined.
