Meanwhile, Cincinnati's attendance had crash-dived from 2.6 million at the 1976 crest of the Red Machine to 1.2 million in 1983.

He singled and doubled in his first game, slid himself into a perfect mudball, and hit .365 the rest of the year. He could take his time with Cobb after that, and he has.

...networks this summer are launching an unprecedented wave of new programming. Eight series are debuting for limited runs of five to seven weeks, along with an unusual number of first-run TV movies and specials. CBS has taken the surprising step of dumping summer reruns of Dallas and Falcon Crest, two top-rated shows that do poorly in repeats, in favor of movies...
