New Attractions at the Reds Hall of Fame for 2009
A look back at the beloved ballpark that served as the home of the Reds from 1912 - 1970. The story of Crosley Field is told through images, one-of-a-kind artifacts, video presentations and a special soundtrack that recreates the unique sounds of a game day at Crosley. Visitors are able to set the Reds' lineup for the day on an 8-foot-tall replica of a portion of the massive Crosley Field scoreboard and also experience the feeling of going uphill to chase a fly ball on the Hall of Fame's recreation of the famous Crosley Field outfield terrace.
Cincinnati's role in the Negro League story is examined through images, period artifacts and rare film footage. The Hall of Fame's exhibit also includes selected images culled from the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum's "Discover Greatness: An Illustrated History of the Negro Baseball Leagues" exhibit, the balance of which is on display at the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, which partnered with the Hall of Fame to bring this traveling exhibit to Cincinnati. The Hall of Fame's exhibit is part of the Reds' season-long celebration of the June 19-21 Civil Rights Weekend which will be highlighted by the Civil Rights Game on June 20 against the Chicago White Sox.
Experience Reds history like never before through the voices of the players who made it. Frank Robinson, Johnny Bench, Pete Rose and Tony Perez are just a few of the Reds legends who share their stories on this special journey through great moments in Reds history. The tour also includes classic radio calls and an excerpt from Red Barber's recreation of the final outs of Johnny Vander Meer's record-setting second-consecutive no-hitter.
