Description

The 1975 Cincinnati Reds, sometimes called the “Big Red Machine,” aren’t just one of the vital memorable teams in baseball history—they’re unforgettable. Whilst the Reds dominated the National League from 1972 to 1976, it used to be the ’75 team that surpassed them all, winning 108 games and beating the Boston Red Sox in a thrilling 7-game World Series. Led by Hall of Fame manager Sparky Anderson, the team’s roster included other legends such as Johnny Bench, Pete Rose, Joe Morgan, Tony Pérez, Ken Griffey Sr., and Dave Concepción. The 1975 Reds were notably disciplined and clean-cut, which distinguished them from the an increasing number of individualistic players of the day.
 
The Great Eight commemorates the people and events surrounding this outstanding baseball team with essays on team management and key aspects and highlights of the season, including Pete Rose’s famous position change. This volume gives Reds fans complete biographies of all of the team’s players, relives the enthralling 1975 season, and celebrates a team that may be consistently ranked as one of the most best teams in baseball history.
