Tales from the Cincinnati Reds Dugout: A Collection of the Greatest Reds Stories Ever Told
Here Reds fans can join former pitcher Tom Browning for legendary tales of festivity (the 1990 World Series championship), immortality (a perfect game in 1988), and a bit of eccentricity (life with owner Marge Schott).

Browning tries to answer a variety of questions that fans have been asking for years: What was his reaction to the lifetime suspension of his manager and friend Pete Rose? How did a ragtag group of Cincinnati ballplayers topple the mighty Oakland A's in the 1990 Fall Classic? Was that really Tom on a Sheffield Avenue rooftop—in uniform—during a 1993 Reds-Cubs game at Wrigley Field? Browning also offers stories and anecdotes about some of the biggest names in Reds history, including:
  • Pete Rose
  • Tony Perez
  • Marge Schott
  • Lou Piniella
  • Eric Davis
  • Dave Parker
  • Buddy Bell
  • Barry Larkin
  • Joe Nuxhall
  • Mario Soto
  • And more!

He devotes an entire chapter to his perfect game, considered to be one of the greatest moments in club history. Tales from the Cincinnati Reds Dugout is a must-have for any Reds fan.
