The fun thing about the Nasty Boys using M.C. Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" as their song, is the fact that M.C. Hammer used to be the batboy for the team they beat in the World Series, the Oakland A's. They're the ones who gave him the name "Hammer" because they thought he looked like Hank Aaron.

His brother was a batboy. Hammer used his dancing skills outside of the Coliseum.

The 90 reds are the most underrated team in MLB history... They went wire to wire and swept the defending world series champions... If they were a new York team, they'd be talked about as one of the best teams of all time...

I agree, they were pretty spectacular. Interestingly enough, if I remember correctly they were supposed to get steamrolled by the A's that year. Everybody saw them as a juggernaut that couldn't be stopped. It turned out that the Reds were actually the team that couldn't be stopped. Thank you for the comment!

I’m no fan of Sparky Anderson but I give him credit for developing the modern bullpen. The 84 Tigers had Juan Berenguer, Aurelio Lopez and Willie Hernandez performing the same roles as the Nasty Boys. The 75 Reds used Clay Carroll, Will McEnaney, Pedro Borbon and Rawly Eastwick. The true originator of bullpen baseball was Clark Griffith.
