The Cincinnati Kids are referenced in "Sparky", an episode of the TV show WKRP in Cincinnati which guest-starred baseball great Sparky Anderson as himself. Anderson is hired by the station as host of a new talk radio program, and his first guest is the captain of the Cincinnati Kids, Derek Doogle, played by Andrew Bloch. The episode first aired December 24, 1979 after the team had folded.
