  • Cincinnati Reds'
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings August 2, 2018 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1939-The Reds announce plans to add 3,100 seats to Crosley Field, by adding a second deck to the pavilions down the left and right field lines MLB.COM Poor defense, baserunning sink Reds in finale Four-run rally in 7th cut short after Casali thrown out at home plate By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon Aug. 1st, 2018 DETROIT -- Since he became Reds interim manager in April, Jim Riggleman has made attention to detail a big part of his daily message to the players. At times throughout the season, Riggleman has organized drills that focus on fundamentals from baserunning, to cutoff throws, covering bases and more. So it wasn't hard to see the disappointment Riggleman felt following a 7-4 Reds loss to the Tigers that completed Detroit's two- game series sweep. Numerous mistakes befuddled Cincinnati defensively and on the bases at Comerica Park. "When you play like that, you're not supposed to win," Riggleman said. "It's not bad effort, it's bad performance. We just have to somehow find a way to clean it up. It was very sloppy." Some of the mistakes included: • Left fielder Phillip Ervin twice missed the cutoff man on hits and it cost the Reds two runs. • A relay throw from shortstop Jose Peraza one-hopped over catcher Curt Casali's head for another run. • Casali ran into a double play during a four-run rally in the seventh inning. "That's the difference between a good club and a really good club," Casali said.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DATE: 1.13.20 CONTACT: Senate Communication Office PHONE: 225.342.6270 2020-2024 LA STATE SENATORS TAKE OATH OF OFFICE IN SPECIAL INAUGURAL CEREMONIES SENATORS CORTEZ AND MIZELL CHOSEN FOR TOP LEADERSHIP POSTS In special inaugural ceremonies in the Louisiana State Senate Chamber, members of the 2020-2024 State Senate took the oath of office and were officially seated as State Senators. Among the 39 members are 20 new State Senators, including nine who are beginning their first term in the Louisiana Legislature. After taking the oath of office from Louisiana Supreme Court Chief Justice Bernette Johnson, the members chose their leadership. Senators unanimously elected District 23 State Senator Patrick “Page” Cortez (R- Lafayette) as Senate President. Senators Johns, Mills, and Boudreaux spoke in support of Senator Cortez’s election. Sen. Cortez, who is beginning his third term in the Louisiana Senate, previously served in the Louisiana House of Representatives for one term. He is known amongst his colleagues for his approachable nature and willingness to work across party divisions. He most recently served as the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Transportation, Highways & Public Works and as a member of the Senate Committees on Retirement and Commerce, Consumer Protection, and International Affairs. With his wife, Angela, and other family members by his side, Sen. Cortez took the oath of office from his friend and former senate colleague, Judge Jonathan “JP” Perry. The new Senate President, a businessman and former high school football coach and history teacher, sees this new legislative term as an opportunity to improve the state’s infrastructure, forge advancements in education, and make responsible reforms to the state’s tax structure and tort systems.
