Daily News | Ron Reed and Bake McBride join the Phillies’ Wall of Fame
A few weeks ago, Ron Reed got a call from a number he didn’t recognize. His phone kept ringing, but he didn’t pick up, assuming it was a junk call. Then, a few minutes later, he got a call from his former Phillies teammate, Greg Luzinski.“What award are you talking about?” Reed responded.
“For me, catching him, when we won that whole thing [in 1980], I felt like without him we don’t win it,” Boone said. “Because he was too good. We didn’t have that closer. He had him and Tug in that period, to win the World Series. Without RR — I used to call him railroad — without him, I don’t think we win this. And we went through a lot of things together.”
Reed was inducted with right fielder Bake McBride, who was unable to make the induction ceremony Saturday evening for personal reasons. McBride played for the Phillies from 1977-81, batting .292 with 106 doubles, 32 triples, and 44 home runs over 553 games. He was an integral member of the 1980 World Series-winning team, batting .304 with seven hits, including a three-run home run in Game 1.
