No, not Rob Lowe! ESPN shows Reds fan and actor who grew up in Dayton cheering Dodgers HR
It felt like salt in the wound for Cincinnati Reds fans to see actor Rob Lowe, who grew up in Dayton, Ohio, going crazy on ESPN for a home run by the Dodgers' Tommy Edman off of Reds starter Hunter Greene to give Los Angeles a 5-0 lead in the 3rd inning of Game 1 of their National League wild-card series.
Lowe has said he was a huge Reds fan because of the Big Red Machine. He's also, however, a Dodgers fan, and he was decked out in Dodger blue at Dodger Stadium and pumping his fist during the broadcast as Edman rounded the bases.
Lowe moved with his family from Dayton to California when he was about 12. He played baseball at Santa Monica High School.
