REDS WIN AGAIN



The Cincinnati Reds picked up another victory last night 4-3, the Reds were trailing going into the bottom of the 8th inning but picked up three in the 8th and held on to beat the Astro's 4-3. The Reds maintain a 2 game lead in the NL Wilcard standings but trail the Cardinals by 2 games in the NL Central, its not to late for you Braves fan to hum on the badwagon. It sounds like Scott had a good day at MSC yesterday but how much could they have done on the 1st day MSC. I have posted an old photo of dad taken back in 1967, as you can see the old fieldhouse is new in this photo and I think dad is the AD at CHHS. MICKEY

The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.

I would say the picture was taken around 65-66 timeframe. I don't think field house was built in 1960.

Looks like Mickey gave him a haircut.

Maybe Dad can get the right answer on this one. I was later than 1960 but I don't know how much later.
