Cincinnati Reds fans refer to June 12, 2023 as "The Ricky Karcher Game."

Karcher made his debut on that date in the 10th inning of the Reds' 5-4 victory over the Kansas City Royals and earned the save after pitching a scoreless inning to end the game.

Not only did Karcher nail down the save, but after the game he had a legendary on-field interview with Jim Day.
