1990 - First Round Playoffs
81-81 vs 98-64
Regular Season - Reds won the series 13-7
Pitching - Pink Knights are 3rd in runs allowed, Reds 7th
Batting - Reds are tops in batting, while we are only 12th.
The Reds rely heavily on 3B Chris Sabo (.285/32/123) while outfielders Hal Morris (.307/20/86) and Eric Davis (.272/22/77) provide the support. 20-game winner Jose Rijo will likely get a couple starts, with 18-game winner Jack Armstrong and 16-game winner Tom Browning will get the remaining. All-Star Closer Rob Dibble will be tough to beat when he comes in for a save.

Well, well, well! An unexpected sweep of the league's best team! Offensive, we stunk up the joint, but we put on a historic pitching performance that will be hard for any team to ever beat! Apparently the big bad Reds could not handle hitting against left-handed pitching, which we put against them in every game.
