I grew up listening to the Dodgers on KTAR as a kid, and was a huge Vin Skully fan, but not a Dodgers fan.
I was a true frontrunner - I loved the 1972-73-74 Oakland A's and then the Big Red Machine.

There were no Diamondbacks when I was growing and my mom's family moved to Arizona from Cincinnati in the '60s so I grew up a Reds fan. Pete Rose was a great player nobody went harder that he did. My grandparents had dinner with him once and said he really was a jerk. As a baseball player he will be missed, as a person, probably not so much.
My mom's family came out from Ohio in the 50s but that's not why I was a Reds fan in my youth. But like you said, there were no Diamondbacks when we were growing up and the Reds happened to be on TV a lot locally here in Arizona. Not only that, they were amazing in the Big Red Machine days and I just
glommed onto them at the time. That was a fun team to watch.
I done did learned a new word
