	Boston Red Sox - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Red Sox fans remember 1967 as the year of the "Impossible Dream." The team had finished the 1966 season in ninth place, but they found new life with Yaz leading the team to the World Series.
		The Red Sox may have lost to the National League champions in the World Series, but their true rivals were the New York Yankees, who after the Babe Ruth trade in 1919 would go on to win 26 World Series championships.
		The Red Sox rally continued through Game 6 (in which Schilling returned to pitch seven innings on an ankle held together with three sutures and wrapped in a bloody, literally red sock) into Game 7, when Johnny Damon hit a grand slam in the second inning and added another home run later.

	The Big Red Machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"The Big Red Machine" was the nickname given to the Cincinnati Reds baseball team that dominated the National League from 1972 to 1976.
		Some place the beginning of the Machine's era at 1970, when they went 102-60 and won the National League pennant under rookie manager Sparky Anderson.
		In 1971, however, the Reds posted a losing record and were not in contention for the division title.

		The Big Red Machine won the World Series in 1975 and 1976, which, combined with the mass media's historical observances in five-year increments, means we revisit the Big Red Machine two years out of every five with feeling.
		The Big Red Machine allows us to relive baseball as we'll never live it again, for it was, among its distinctions, the last dynasty before free agency, arbitration and all that comes with it.
		The Big Red Machine not only was the greatest offensive force in National League history, but it was the last great champion that could be seen and touched with such familiarity and intimacy.

		In '73 the Reds were toppled by the Mets in the NL Playoffs, which featured a fight between Rose and Bud Harrelson.
		The Big Red Machine was compared to the 1927 Yankees, the DiMaggio/Gehrig Yankees, the A's of 1929-1931, the Mantle-Era Yankees, Musial's Cardinals, and the 1972-1974 A's.
		The Reds were one of the most talented group of players in history - and that talent was passed on to their children.

		But the Reds total of 857 runs outperformed the National League average of 626 by 137 percent, which is the second best performance of all-time (second to the 141 percent of the 1931 Yankees), and better than the '27 Yankees, the '55 Dodgers and the '39 Yankees.
		The "Big Red Machine" got its nickname in the summer of 1969.
		Former Enquirer cartoonist Jerry Dowling was drawing "Big Red Machine" cartoons in the summer of '69, too.

	The 1976 Big Red Machine \| BaseballLibrary.com
		I agree with the submission by Mike Scott of Pennsylvania, who wrote that "The 1976 Reds Deserve More Credit." In 1976 the Big Red Machine was at its most awesome peak of power.
		As Mike mentioned, this '76 Big Red Machine was the only team in history to sweep the playoffs and the World Series, taking the Yankees in 4 games in spite of a phenomenal series for New York from their catcher, Thurman Munson.
		When his favorite player, Tony Perez, was traded after the 1976 season, and the Reds failed to even win the pennant in 1977, he was heartbroken, and has never been a serious fan of any team since.

	The Big Red Machine
		Besides leading baseball in the aforementioned 10 offensive and defensive categories, the Big Red Machine led the National League in stolen bases, demonstrating a combination of speed and power that has been matched only by one other franchise: the Dodgers of the early 1950s.
		When the '76 Reds are compared to the '55 (or '53) Dodgers, the Reds win four of the eight positions outright: catcher (Bench over Campanella), third base (Rose over Robinson), second (Morgan over Gilliam) and left field (Foster over Amoros).
		The Reds are only the third team in history to have in its starting lineup four MVPs (Foster finished second in the MVP voting in 1976, and won in 1977).

		The exciting rise of the Reds begins with the arrival of general manager Bob Howsam in 1967 and subsequent hiring of little-known Sparky Anderson three years later and gains momentum with the grooming of one of the greatest lineups to take the field.
		You get the full picture of how the "Big Red Machine" was put together on the field and off, and also get candid insights into how the dynasty ultimately declined as the free agent revolution hit baseball in the late 70s.
		The Reds won a division title in 1979 with most of the "Big Red Machine" still intact (Morgan, Bench, Foster, Concepcion) and also put together baseball's best record in 1981 and this final phase of Reds quality baseball merited analysis as well, and not just the quick, casual dismissal the authors give it.
