Cincinnati Reds found fame in 2010

Ask people who lived on the 1970 baseball highlights of a decade and probably two stories. The first is the home of the record Hank Aaron breaking Babe Ruth run. The second is the Big Red Machine of Cincinnati. From 1970 to 1978 dominated the Reds in the National League. The Reds appeared in the World Series four times (in '70, '72, '75 and '76) and won back to back in the user interface (75 and 76). In another three seasons in the 70s, the Reds finished second in their division. Among those teams, several players have praised.

The glory days were enough for the fans to hang their hats years ago, and the Reds briefly some of that magic in the 1980s and mid-1990 again.
Then, the blockbuster franchise from a dark time. In 1995, the team in the National League NLCs was swept. Then the Reds 14 consecutive years without a win in their divisionnand four or five eight times. On the way Cincinnati managed to win only two seasons, and the fans were desperate for left the Reds 66-96 in 2000 and 69-93 in 2003. The 2000 season was the worst of the red since 1982 and the second worst since the year 1949 team was 62-92. In a moment, however, that changes everything. The Reds ended 2010 with a mark of 91-71 in the National League Central Division, winning five games against the Cardinals. Cincinnati won its first playoff game in 15 years. The Reds are 49-41 in the first half and 42-30 in the second half when the team was a mark of 19-8 on a hot August. The figures, however, hide a little concern that has plagued the start of the 2010 season. Cincinnati has lost six in seven April and fell to 6-10. The team have, however, their slow start to nine of 10 games of 8 May to 18 May victory improved The Reds were swept are still in second place in early August after the Cardinals in a three-game series. San Luis cable was of short duration. Cincinnati has won seven straight games, the lead division again and has never lost the rest of the season.
Of course, the Reds owe much of their success in 2010 by a powerful crime. First baseman Joey Votto (notes), which was rejected by fans in All-Star Voting for the game 2010 but won a place anyway, to go with 37 home runs and 113 RBIs to batting average with a .324. He was a threat to claim the coveted Triple Crown to the last day of the season. Red Three others also had 20 or more home runs. The center fielder Drew Stubbs (notes), which was only 25 years old in 2010 suggested, 22 home runs and 77 RBIs and had 30 stolen bases. Jay Bruce (Notes) hit 25 home runs and 70 RBIs he had, and third baseman Scott Rolen (notes) with 20 home runs and 83 RBIs despite the absence of Buffalo Bills jersey

Reds pitcher Bronson Arroyo young Highlights (Notes), which took their second straight strong season after a poor 2008 season at 17-10 with a 3.88 ERA and 24 years, Johnny Cueto phenomenon (notes) finished the 12 games with a 3 , 64 鈧?ERA and 138 strikeouts raised. tnen 22 years won Mike Leake (white) eight games in 2010, and (Notes) Homer Bailey, 24 and 23 years, Travis Wood (notes) combined for nine wins. The Reds have also a great opportunity to Edinson Volques (Notes) returning from the disabled list at the end of the season. Fireball 26-year-old won four games and posted an ERA of 4.12. The bullpen started well, too. Francisco Cordero (notes) had saved 40, and Arold Chapman (white) came to Cincinnati with a fastball clocked up to 104 miles per hour.

With a strong team, young pitching seven of the eight position players, the 30 years or less, the Reds have the heart to establish a dynasty in the modern era Cincinnati. As always, however, are threatening injuries and free agents to disrupt any possibility that this group about the Big Red Machine of the 1970 years of history.
