  • Jose Ramirez Looked to Be the Only Person Inside Goodyear Ballpark Who Immediately Realized What He Had Pulled Off Sunday Afternoon
    Alert Ramirez sparks Indians' rare triple play By Jordan Bastian MLB.com @MLBastian GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Jose Ramirez looked to be the only person inside Goodyear Ballpark who immediately realized what he had pulled off Sunday afternoon. The crowd was buzzing as they discussed the play that unfolded in front of them and it took a few moments before the umpires let Cleveland's fielders return to the dugout. In the sixth inning of a 5-4 loss to the Brewers, Ramirez swiftly recorded a pair of outs to ignite a unique triple play with the bases loaded, providing the highlight of Cleveland's split-squad games against Milwaukee and Kansas City. The three outs were recorded so fast that manager Terry Francona quipped the Indians could have notched four on the play. "There were outs everywhere," Francona said. Brewers manager Craig Counsell agreed. "They could have gotten four outs on that play, very easily could have gotten four outs," Counsell said. "It's a crazy thing. You come to the field and see something [like that]. I think everyone in our dugout said they'd never seen anything like that." The play began with Jonathan Villar on first, Christian Yelich on second and Stephen Vogt on third base for the Brewers against Indians righty Matt Belisle. Travis Shaw then sent a soft looping liner up the third-base line, where Vogt was caught in between. If he bolted home and Ramirez snared the ball for an out, Vogt could have been doubled up at third. Instead of making the catch, Ramirez gloved the ball on a short hop, introducing a bit of chaos.

The future Hall of Famer will only make two starts for the Reds, pitching 18.0 innings over six games, with a 7.50 ERA MLB.COM Reds load up for 1,825-mile trip to Arizona By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon Feb. 5th, 2019 CINCINNATI -- Stacks of boxes, suitcases and baseball equipment were piled up in the loading dock at Great American Ball Park on Tuesday. Clubhouse workers were grabbing them and loading them into an 18-wheeler truck. That means it's almost time for Reds Spring Training, which opens in Goodyear, Ariz., next week. Led by vice president of home clubhouse operations Rick Stowe, who began working for the club in 1981 and became head of the clubhouse in 1997, the Reds have a well-oiled machine with regard to packing up and moving out. "It's about a three- or fourth-month process, and we get done in about one hour," said Tony Walter, a home clubhouse assistant. "It's a lot of planning, buildup and anticipation for about an hour's worth of work that's completed relatively efficiently." The truck is scheduled to leave Cincinnati on Wednesday for a 1,825-mile trek to the Reds' player development complex in Goodyear. Reds pitchers and catchers will report to Spring Training for physicals on Feb. 12 and work out for the first time the following day. The first full-squad workout will be held on Feb.
