Tell everyone what you think.
Should Bailey be permitted to wear them again. Should his clothes be washed? Same deal with Hannigan.

I would say wash and wear.
I never was into collection baseball/sports memorabilia. I remember going to a mall when I was young, Junior High, and there was a Reds player giving out autographs. I refused to stand in lines with my friends to have get a signed picture of someone I really didn’t know. I think I snuck out back and smoked cigarettes. I still think that was the better choice.
I don’t know why anyone would want a sock from Baileys second no hitter.

No, these are holy relics. The Reds should create a special office, the sole duty of which is the management of Bailey's charisma, and sacred objects created by/related to it, in the manner that best promotes the mana of the organization as whole...

This is why the kids love museums.
Who wouldnt want to pay to stand in line to see a shin guard protected by a glass case used by some second string catcher to catch Tom Browning's no hitter.
Now maybe if we let the kids play with these old bats and balls we would be on to something.

Of course, another duty of the office would involve tracking down skeptics and unbelievers who weaken the mana of the organization...

Maybe he was really wearing Jim Maloney's old uniform.

Uh Yeah!! He can't wear that red Powerade stained uni out there for the next game!!! I think it would be a little more unique if they just hung the Jersey in the Reds hall of fame without washing it. Part of the hall is to see how the uniform has evolved over the years as well, and if you are going to do that you might as well kill two birds with one stone and target uniforms from major franchise moments. As for autograph hunting, I doubt I'd do it now, but back when I was a kid it was nice to meet the players and have something to remember it from. |

Yes.... Johnny Cueto seemed to dump a water bottle of Hawaiian punch on him.... anyway, why the hell was Johnny jumping up and down like a loon when he's on the DL for the 3rd time this year?

It wasn't that, it was the water cooler of red stuff that Hannahan hit him with when he was shaking the batboys hand. |
