Cincinnati Reds' Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings August 26, 2017 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1939-The Reds participate in the first major league game to be televised. Playing the Dodgers at Ebbets Field, W2XBS, which later becomes WNBC-TV, broadcasts the game with Red Barber announcing for the 400 people or so who own a television in the New York area MLB.COM Reds ride Bob's arm, Scheb's bat past Bucs By Adam Berry and Mark Sheldon / MLB.com | 1:11 AM ET + 46 COMMENTS CINCINNATI -- Entering the home stretch of the season, the Reds will continue to look for positive signs from their young starting pitchers. Robert Stephenson gave them something to think about Friday night, striking out a career-high 11 batters in 5 2/3 innings as the Reds beat the Pirates, 9-5, at Great American Ball Park. Stephenson began the night by striking out the first six batters he faced, a modern club record for Cincinnati. "That was pretty cool," he said. The 24-year-old right-hander, going by "Bob" for Players Weekend, gave up two runs on seven hits and four walks but kept the Bucs off balance with strikeout stuff. "That might have been as good of a slider as I've seen in a long time," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. "The slider played exceptionally well. Threw some good changeups, too. We hadn't seen that pitch from maybe anybody this year as far as the depth and tilt to the slider. It was an elite slider tonight." Stephenson, who is trying to emerge among a group of young Reds starting pitchers that has struggled in 2017, has started to show signs of turning the corner. Over his last three starts and one relief appearance, he has a 1.96 ERA. "I think a couple of mechanical tweaks in the bullpen and I've been a lot more consistent with my fastball," Stephenson said. "I feel like when I'm throwing more strikes with my fastball, it's a lot easier to get outs." He had plenty of run support on Friday, too. Scott Schebler ("Scheb") homered, drove in three runs and reached base four times. Adam Duvall also homered in the fifth inning off Pirates starter Ivan Nova, who allowed seven runs (five earned) in five innings and saw his second-half ERA climb to an even 6.00. "Obviously I didn't do the job I was supposed to," Nova said. "The fastball was missing over the plate. … I think the only thing that was working the way it was supposed to was the curveball. With one pitch, you cannot live. You have to have other pitches. They made me work really hard today." First baseman Josh Bell ("JB") was a bright spot for the Pirates, ripping a three-run homer to left-center field to pull Pittsburgh to within two runs in the seventh inning. Reds pinch-hitter Patrick Kivlehan responded with a two-run double, sending the Pirates to their 10th loss in 13 games. MOMENTS THAT MATTERED See Scott run: Schebler finished a double shy of the cycle and got the hardest part out of the way first. With Eugenio Suarez at second base, Schebler ripped a line drive into the right-field corner. John Jaso chased the ball as it bounced around the warning track, and Schebler wheeled around to third base. He rounded third, but coach Billy Hatcher held him up, short of the inside-the- park homer. Schebler then scored on Tucker Barnhart's sacrifice fly. Leave 'em loaded: Before Bell's seventh-inning homer, the Pirates threatened to rally in the sixth. The Bucs loaded the bases against Stephenson and sent up pinch-hitter Jose Osuna with two outs. The Reds summoned right-hander Tim Adleman from the bullpen, and Adleman defused the rally with six pitches. Osuna went down swinging at an 84.3-mph changeup to end the inning. QUOTABLE "[Nova's] command, it's not where we've seen it in the past. … We need to peel back a couple more layers, talk about a couple things that you can do. He was able to pitch more effectively his last time out, not so much this time out."-- Hurdle "[Stephenson] had a nice mix going. I think he was able to establish the fastball. They had to respect the usage and the velocity and that opened up a lot of things for the slider, curve and split. He really was able to go out there and make good pitches. He retired the first six via the strikeout against a good lineup. It's not easy to do. And he made a series of really good pitches and was able to take that into the sixth." -- Reds manager Bryan Price SOUND SMART WITH YOUR FRIENDS Joey Votto led off the bottom of the eighth by drawing a walk against reliever Johnny Barbato, extending his season-high on-base streak to 29 games. That is the longest active on-base streak in the Majors. WHAT'S NEXT Pirates: Right-hander Gerrit Cole ("Cole Train") will look for his first win against the Reds in 10 starts at 6:40 p.m. ET Saturday at Great American Ball Park. Cole is 0-6 with a 5.14 ERA against Cincinnati, though he recorded a quality start in a 4-3 loss earlier this season. Reds: Luis Castillo will make his first career start vs. the Pirates when the series continues Saturday. Castillo has notched quality starts in six of his last nine outings but is winless in his last four starts. Adam Berry has covered the Pirates for MLB.com since 2015.

Kivlehan honors injured friend with 'Believe' By Mark Sheldon / MLB.com | @m_sheldon | August 25th, 2017 + 0 COMMENTS CINCINNATI -- When Reds players were tasked to decide what nickname they wanted on their jerseys for Players Weekend -- which began Friday -- outfielder/infielder Patrick Kivlehan came up with something less nickname and more in the way of a tribute to a friend and former teammate. Kivlehan played college football for four seasons at Rutgers University and was teammates with Eric LeGrand, who was paralyzed while making a tackle in a 2010 game. LeGrand's well-known mantra since his injury has been "Believe," and that's the word that is above Kivlehan's No. 3 this weekend. "I talked to a couple of old roommates from college and they said, 'Why don't you throw 'Believe,' on there for Eric?' I thought that was a great idea," Kivlehan said. "I just wanted to make sure he was cool with it. He was cool with it. I told him I'd get him one." LeGrand suffered his spinal cord injury Oct. 16, 2010, against Army at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey while tackling a player after a kickoff. "We came in together," Kivlehan said. "We were in the same recruiting class and graduated at the same time. I was on the field with him when he got injured." Kivlehan was a safety, and also played on special teams. He did not play baseball until his senior year, but still won the Big East conference triple crown and player of the year honors in 2012. LeGrand's story became an inspiration for others with spinal cord injuries, as he has worked to gain more feeling in his body and efforts to try and walk again. Rutgers eventually started the Believe Foundation and LeGrand has written two books about his life with paralysis. In 2012, he received the Jimmy V. Award for Perseverance at ESPN's Espy Awards. "He's honestly become the face of paralysis and the guy who everyone looks at," Kivlehan said. "He's taken that on and run with it. He's done some great things and has inspired a lot of people. He's only going to do more." Kivlehan is cherishing the chance to wear "Believe" on his Reds jersey. "It's something that sticks with the guys I played with at Rutgers, and kind of the whole Rutgers community," Kivlehan said. "It was too good of an opportunity to pass up to honor him and everything he's gone through and been through. I wanted to let him know I am thinking about him, and he's always with me."

This story was not subject to the approval of Major League Baseball or its clubs. 'Scheb' heating up at perfect time By Mark Sheldon / MLB.com | @m_sheldon | 12:43 AM ET + 3 COMMENTS CINCINNATI -- The last couple of months have not been kind to Reds right fielder Scott Schebler (known as "Scheb" for Players Weekend). His offensive numbers suffered and later, it was learned a sore left shoulder was partially to blame. While Schebler was away, outfield prospect Jesse Winker received ample opportunity in his place. On Friday -- the same day Winker went on the disabled list with a left hip flexor strain -- Schebler erupted at the plate. While reaching base all four times in the Reds' 9-5 victory over the Pirates, he was a double shy of hitting for the cycle.

  • Cincinnati Reds' Eugenio Suarez Celebrates After Hitting a Solo Home Run Off San Diego Padres Relief Pitcher Brad Hand in the Seventh Inning Thursday, Aug
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings August 24, 2017 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1990-The Reds release Ken Griffey, Sr. MLB.COM 'Tokki 2' belts 33rd homer as Reds fall to Cubs By Mark Sheldon and Andrew Call / MLB.com | 12:05 AM ET + 196 COMMENTS CINCINNATI -- The Cubs are playing the right teams at the right time to enable them to pull away in the National League Central division race. A 9-3 victory over the Reds on Wednesday night -- aided by a three-run first inning and five-run fourth -- was their fifth win in a row. "Collectively, we were all going through a down period [in the first half of the season]," infielder Tommy La Stella said. "The talent has always been there. It's starting to turn for us right now, and turn at the right time." With the Brewers' 4-2 loss to the Giants, the Cubs opened a season-high 3 1/2-game lead in the division. In the midst of playing 13 straight games against last-place teams -- the Blue Jays, Reds and Phillies -- Chicago has won seven of the first nine games. For the season series, the Cubs have also won 10 of 15 games vs. the Reds. "You can struggle in the second half or you can learn from your mistakes and get better," winning pitcher Mike Montgomery said after the Cubs moved 11 games over .500 for the first time this season. "Now it's all about getting into the playoffs. We're completely over last year." Reds starter Asher Wojciechowski had a wobbly outing from the get-go as he faced eight batters -- and walked three -- in a 35-pitch first inning and allowed three runs.

    The Boston Red Sox Monday, August 21, 2017 * The Boston Globe The pick here is Andrew Benintendi over Aaron Judge Dan Shaughnessy Aaron Judge vs. Andrew Benintendi. Forget 2017 American League Rookie of the Year. I’m asking . which guy would you rather have on your team for the next 15 seasons? We love these Yankee-Red Sox mano-a-manos. It’s as old as the rivalry itself. Joe DiMagggio came to the bigs in 1936. Ted Williams burst on the scene three years later. Throughout the 1940s, it was a raging argument. We were even led to believe that the respective owners of the Sox and Yankees once made a late-night swap while in a drunken haze. The alleged trade was called off by dawn’s early light. Remember when the Sox had Carlton Fisk and the Yanks had Thurman Munson? New York’s grumpy catcher was a league MVP before his career was tragically cut short when he crashed his plane in 1979. Fisk went on to become a Hall of Famer. Don Mattingly and Wade Boggs were rivals of sorts in the 1980s and who can forget those early years of this new century when Nomar Garciaparra vs. Derek Jeter was a real debate. Now we have Judge and Benintendi. Big Poison and Little Poison. It’s 6 feet 7 inches and 282 pounds vs. 5-10 and 170. It’s not about Rookie of the Year anymore. Even though he is playing as badly as anyone can play at the moment, Judge pretty much retired the rookie trophy with his ridiculous first half.

VanMeter, 21, split the 2016 season at San Diego's Class A Advanced and Double-A affiliates, batting a combined .251/.331/.403 with 14 home runs and 56 RBIs. He primarily plays second base and third base but also has shortstop experience. Torrens, a catcher, was picked second overall in the Rule 5 Draft and flipped to the Padres later in the day. The Reds also received cash in the deal. Cincinnati also announced the invitation of 19 non-roster players to big league camp at Spring Training: catchers Rob Brantly, Chad Wallach and Shawn Zarraga, right-handers Alejandro Chacin, Vladimir Gutierrez, Jimmy Herget, Tyler Mahle, Evan Mitchell and Kevin Shackelford, left-handers Ismael Guillon, Lucas Luetge and Nick Routt, infielder Brandon Dixon, shortstop Zach Vincej, outfielders Sebastian Elizalde and Gabriel Guerrero, infielder/outfielder Patrick Kivlehan and Tony Renda and utility player Hernan Iribarren.
