This Coin is Rare; it was a Rare Year for the Reds. The Year Reds Went Wire to Wire in First Place. Help your Reds fan remember the 1990 World Series Champions. Commemorative Limited Edition – 1 OZ Silver Round.. Going into the series, the Oakland A fans were bringing out the sweep broom. Billy Hatcher set a World Series record by recording seven consecutive hits to start the Fall Classic, and he also set a record by hitting. 750 overall in the Fall Classic, eclipsing Babe Ruth’s mark of. Hatcher was 3-for-3 in Game 1 and 4-for-4 in Game 2. The 30-year-old grounded into a double play in his first at-bat in Game 3 to end the hit streak, but he still ended up going 2-for-5 in that game. And the last game he was hit by a pitch in his first at bat in the first inning and knocked out of the game with an injury to his hand or finger. With Hatcher gone, Oakland scored a run, and it seemed like their pitcher was untouchable. Amazingly, in the eight inning, the Reds put on a bunting spree, and it seemed like the Oakland infield could not make the right play at the right base, and the Reds loaded up the bases.
