    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings February 12, 2019 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1888-The Reds begin a six-week exhibition tour through Texas, Louisiana and Alabama MLB.COM Duke returns to Reds on one-year deal Cincy designates right-hander Lopez for assignment in corresponding move By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon Feb. 11th, 2019 GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- This past offseason featured multiple trades by the Reds, but Monday officially marked their first free-agent acquisition, when lefty reliever Zach Duke signed a one-year, $2 million contract. To make room for Duke, right-handed pitcher Jose Lopez was designated for assignment. Duke, who will turn 36 in April, agreed to terms with Cincinnati on Feb. 2. The club will get added veteran presence in its bullpen. He is a 14-year Major League veteran. In 72 games combined for the Twins and Mariners last season, Duke was 5-5 with a 4.15 ERA and 1.50 WHIP. Over 52 innings, he allowed 57 hits including one home run with 21 walks and 51 strikeouts. Left-handed hitters batted .220 against him, compared to .311 by right-handed hitters. But the Reds do not view the ground-ball pitcher as a one-out left-handed situational reliever. "He's a guy that likes to pitch a full inning and expects to be in there to pitch a full inning," Reds president of baseball operations Dick Williams said. "He's had a lot of success against lefties, but we are comfortable that he's not necessarily going to be a one-out guy." Duke is returning to the Reds after pitching for them during the 2013 season, a stint that helped turn his career around after being released by the Nationals earlier that year.

    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings March 27, 2016 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1989 - Sports Illustrated publishes a story about Cincinnati Reds manager Pete Rose's gambling activities. Rose will eventually agree to a lifetime ban from Major League Baseball as part of an agreement with Commissioner A. Bartlett Giamatti. MLB.COM Hamilton, Reds outslug Frazier, White Sox By Scott Merkin / MLB.com | + 22 COMMENTS GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Camelback Ranch was not kind to either Carlos Rodon or Brandon Finnegan during Saturday afternoon's 9-7 victory for the Reds over the White Sox. Rodon cruised through the first inning on five pitches, and Finnegan struck out the side during the opening frame. But fortunes quickly improved for the hitters. The Reds scored four in the second on five hits, including a three-run home run from Ivan De Jesus Jr. De Jesus finished a triple short of the cycle. But the White Sox broke free for six in the fourth to claim a 7-4 lead. Adam Eaton singled home two, while Jimmy Rollins and Hector Sanchez each delivered an RBI single. Jason Coats walked with the bases loaded to force home another run. That advantage didn't last long, as Adam Duvall lofted a three-run homer to left in the fifth to forge a tie. Rodon was lifted by manager Robin Ventura after De Jesus singled and Jordan Pacheco walked, with the Reds eventually scoring five in the frame, two on Billy Hamilton's double. Todd Frazier knocked two hits for the White Sox playing against his former club, adding a run scored.
