To all who have joined us on TV, thank you. The Reds lead the Central at the break. Their style - exhilarating. Fusing old-school grind of hustle & patience w/selective aggression of running & bombs. The best, is yet to come. Cya Friday, on TV, or at GABP. Baseball = FUN! 😊

On the night he posted his 1st inside-the-park HR, Elly conducted his 1st post-game TV interview in English. A special talent & an incredibly hard worker. This off-season, I met hundreds of young Reds fans (12 & under). The driving force of fandom for almost all? “Elly!”

"When I see him missing the ball, I say, 'I'm going home.'" Elly De La Cruz tells @JimDayTV that he knew before hitting second base that he was going for an inside-the-park home run in the seventh inning of a 10-8 @Reds win over the Brewers. #Reds

From the good folks at MLB Research: Elly De La Cruz has reached base in each of the Reds’ first 12 games, and 17 straight dating back to last season. The last Red with a longer on-base streak to start a season? Joey Votto in 2015 (15 games).
