Bud Hit the Reds Where It Hurt
Newsday, October 8, 1973
Bud Harrelson provided Pete Rose and the Reds with some bulletin board material after the second game of the 1973 NLCS. These words would soon, famously, lead to an on-field brawl between the two players at Shea. Also includes an article about Game 2, "Up Up and Away Soared Superfoul".
