  • Tom Tsuchiya Is Best Known for Creating the Plaques for The
    Tom Tsuchiya is best known for creating the plaques for the National Baseball Hall of Fame since 2016 and the sculptures of Cincinnati Reds players at Great American Ball Park. In addition, Tom has been recognized for his innovative, social art including The Spirit of Christ at Biola University in Los Angeles and Atlas Recycled, which is now on exhibit at University of Cincinnati. Recently, he collaborated with local, aerospace engineers from GE Aviation to create a cantilevered sculpture of Pete Rose sliding headfirst. This sculpture was unveiled at Great American Ball Park in June 2017. Tom’s passion for creating sculpture began in Sherwin Little’s Latin classes at Indian Hill Middle and High School where he was introduced to the great sculptures of the Classical world. This led him to create a terra cotta sculpture of the Chimera for the 1988 NJCL Convention- winning the Best of Show award. Subsequently, he enrolled at the University of Cincinnati’s Classics Department where he received his BA in Classical Civilization. During that time, Tom began his apprenticeship with noted artists Carin Hebenstreit and Richard Miller. Classical education shaped Tom’s sculptural philosophy in 2 significant ways. First, creating sculptures that have a breath of life. Secondly, designing sculptures to be integral to everyday life. On Atlas Recycled aka The Anthropocene (2010) After I complete a bronzes sculpture like the Reds players, I often have left -over material such as foam, wood, and steel. Instead of throwing the material into the trash, I keep the scraps for future sculpture projects. In 2010, I created Atlas Recycled from some of my scrap material including a black iron pipe, welded, steel rebar and a wood platform and a hollow fiberglass sphere.

The three-day 2017 Draft ended Wednesday, and the Reds will be watching and teaching their newest crop of 41 players with hopes they can follow the path of current homegrown players like Joey Votto, Zack Cozart, Billy Hamilton and Devin Mesoraco, among others. "We hope it went really well. But it takes four or five years to find out," Reds vice president of amateur scouting Chris Buckley said. "I know this: A lot of work went into it, a lot of people put their hearts and souls into it." Cincinnati had the No. 2 overall pick for the second straight year, and used it to take the No. 1 prospect in the Draft, per MLBPipeline.com, in pitcher/shortstop Hunter Greene from Notre Dame High School (Sherman Oaks, Calif.). Not only has Greene impressed the nation with his 102-mph fastball, he has already captivated with his poise and maturity.

  • Cincinnati Reds to Celebrate 150Th Anniversary in 2019
    Cincinnati Reds to Celebrate 150th Anniversary in 2019 CINCINNATI (November 5, 2018) — The Cincinnati Reds announce plans for the 2019 season-long celebration of the 150 Year Anniversary of Professional Baseball which began in Cincinnati with the formation of the 1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings. Background on 1869 Red Stockings The 1869 Red Stockings were the first openly all-salaried professional team in baseball history, transforming baseball from a social-club pastime to a professional game. In their inaugural season of 1869, the Red Stockings played opponents from across the country going undefeated with 57 wins, 0 losses. The Red Stockings success resulted in other cities establishing their own all-professional teams which became the basis of league play that still exists today. “We are extremely proud to be the birthplace of professional baseball,” said Reds Chief Executive Officer Bob Castellini. “Fans and communities throughout Reds Country share this prestigious distinction with us. It is their loyalty and support that has allowed Reds baseball to thrive. This will be a 150th anniversary celebration of the franchise and the generations of fans who have been its champions.” “The year of 1869 is an important milestone for professional baseball and a symbol of Cincinnati’s unique role in professional baseball history,” said Major League Baseball Commissioner Robert D. Manfred, Jr.. “Major League Baseball looks forward to celebrating the Reds’ origins and Cincinnati’s significant place in the evolution of our great game.” Commemorative 150th Anniversary Logo A new logo honoring the 150th anniversary will be featured throughout Reds programming, activities and giveaways all season long.
