Cincinnati Reds' Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings March 28, 2017 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1977 - The Reds trade Joel Youngblood to the Cardinals for Bill Caudill. Caudill will be traded to the Cubs for Bill Bonham seven months later, never appearing in a major league game for the Reds MLB.COM Turner's homer highlights offense vs. Giants By Mark Sheldon and Chris Haft / MLB.com | March 27th, 2017 + 58 COMMENTS SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Enjoying their second-biggest offensive output of the spring in their next-to-last Arizona exhibition, the San Francisco Giants benefited from a seven-run outburst in Monday's fourth inning and cruised to a 14-2 Cactus League triumph over the Cincinnati Reds. Aaron Hill, seeking a utility infielder's role for the Giants, went 3-for-4 with a first-inning RBI single and a two-run, fifth-inning double. Reserve outfielder Gorkys Hernandez, who entered the game batting .159, rapped three doubles. Jae-gyun Hwang hoisted a two-run, opposite-field homer to right field in the fifth inning to conclude San Francisco's scoring against Reds starter Cody Reed, who allowed 10 runs in 3 2/3 innings. Reed, who entered the day with a 3.24 ERA in his previous five spring games, is trying to earn a spot in the Reds' rotation. "I got behind," Reed said. "That's a Major League lineup and they don't make mistakes that much. I made more mistakes than they did. They took advantage of me. That might be the worst I've ever been hit around, even from last year when I got banged up most of those 10 starts (0-7, 7.36 ERA)." The Giants set a team record for runs scored, exceeding the 12 they tallied on March 12 against Arizona. The Reds, whose lineup consisted mostly of candidates for reserve roles, avoided a shutout in the fifth inning when Sebastian Elizalde doubled and scored before Stuart Turner homered. Otherwise, Giants starter Madison Bumgarner was mostly untouchable, yielding one hit through four innings.The Opening Day starter ultimately lasted seven innings, surrendering two runs and four hits, while striking out nine. The pair of Reds runs he yielded halted his streak of innings without allowing an earned run at 16. "You look at what he's been doing, his body of work recently, it's what makes him so good," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "He takes every outing seriously, so serious to the point where his preparation doesn't waver." Reds Up Next: Opening Day starter Scott Feldman will get his final spring tune-up when the Reds host the Dodgers at 4:05 p.m. ET Tuesday (Gameday audio) at Goodyear Ballpark. Michael Lorenzen is slated to follow from the bullpen. Giants Up Next: San Francisco concludes the Cactus League portion of the spring schedule with a 1:05 p.m. PT (MLB.TV) encounter against the World Series champion Chicago Cubs. Matt Cain, seeking the Giants' No. 5 starter's spot, will oppose Cubs righty Jake Arrieta. Watch every out-of-market regular-season game live on MLB.TV.

Iglesias says he'll be ready for Opening Day By Mark Sheldon / MLB.com | @m_sheldon | March 27th, 2017 + 3 COMMENTS GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- The Reds are counting on Raisel Iglesias to be a main cog in the back end of their bullpen. But Iglesias hasn't thrown a pitch in a spring game since March 14 because of a bone bruise on his right elbow. Iglesias, who hurt his elbow and hips during a fall in the shower, felt the idle time would not affect him negatively. "I'm not worried about it. I feel strong right now," Iglesias said on Monday via translator Julio Morillo. "I feel like all of my pitches are there. [Tuesday], I'm going to throw in the bullpen. After that, I'm pretty confident that I'm going to go into the season and compete and everything is going to be fine." If Iglesias has a successful bullpen session, manager Bryan Price plans to get him into a game, potentially one of the exhibitions in Dayton or Louisville vs. Reds Minor Leaguers. "My elbow and my hips are fine," Iglesias said. "I feel really good. I think everything is going to be all right." Iglesias threw on Sunday, leaving Price optimistic he would be ready. "He did everything yesterday. He threw, he hit. His back is fine. His elbow is fine," Price said. Following a stint on the disabled list from May 1-June 20 last season because of a shoulder impingement, Iglesias switched from starting to relief work. The right-hander had a 1.98 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and six saves in eight chances over 50 innings and 32 relief appearances. Price plans to utilize Iglesias, Michael Lorenzen, Tony Cingrani and Drew Storen at the end of games for potentially multiple innings per appearances. Iglesias, 27, is prepared for anything. "Whatever they want me to do, I will do it. I will compete," Iglesias said. "I will do my best. I just want to show them that I'm ready to be the closer of this team. That's my goal. I'm going to go and do whatever I did last year, compete and whatever decision they make will be fine with me."

CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Game report: Giants 14, Reds 2 Zach Buchanan , [email protected] 9:23 p.m. ET March 27, 2017 SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – LHP Cody Reed got shelled in his final start, and the Cincinnati Reds fell 14-2 to the San Francisco Giants on Monday at Scottsdale Stadium. Reed was the last of Cincinnati's rotation hopefuls to make his Cactus League finale. All of them – Reed, Rookie Davis, Robert Stephenson, Tim Adleman, Sal Romano and Amir Garrett – had less-than-stellar outings in their final starts. THE ARMS Reed struggled from the get-go, walking the first two batters of the game and giving up two runs in the first inning. In the second inning, he hit the first batter, walked the second and wound up giving up another run. Things really went off the rails in the fourth. Reed gave up four consecutive one-out hits, including two doubles. After taking a comebacker off the his glove and recovering for the second out of the inning, he walked the next batter, allowed a double and then home run by Giants 2B Joe Panik. That ended Reed's day. In total, he was charged for 10 runs and four walks in 3 ⅔ innings. He did not record a strikeout, and finished Cactus League play with a 7.08 ERA. "I get so jittery when I'm up there. I'm so ready to go," Reed said. "It just speeds up on me. I've got to learn how to slow it down." RHP Michael Lorenzen worked around a walk in two scoreless innings. RHP Blake Wood gave up a run on two hits in two-thirds of a frame, and LHP Tony Cingrani walked two and allowed three runs in one-third of an inning. THE BATS Giants LHP Madison Bumgarner mowed through the Reds in the early going, with only RF Sebastian Elizalde reaching base with a single in the second. Elizalde finished 2 for 4, and scored on a sacrifice fly. C Stuart Turner added a monster home run in the fifth. THE REST LF Hernan Iribarren didn't look very natural in the outfield, but did get start an inning-ending 7-5-6 putout to nab SS Brandon Crawford trying to go first-to-third in the first. UP NEXT Reds RHP Scott Feldman will have his final tuneup before pitching Opening Day when the Reds host the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday at Goodyear Ballpark. Feldman will be followed by Lorenzen, RHP Barrett Astin and LHPs Lucas Luetge and Wandy Peralta. LHP Alex Wood will start for the Dodgers. The game will be carried on 700 WLW AM at 4:05 p.m. Facing four-man bench, Reds release Ryan Raburn Zach Buchanan , [email protected] Published 12:19 p.m. ET March 27, 2017 | Updated 21 hours ago GOODYEAR, Ariz. – Cincinnati Reds manager Bryan Price hates the idea of a four-man bench. Playing the National League game, it ties one hand behind his back when it comes to pinch-hitting early in games. But with the Reds expected to start the season with a shockingly young pitching staff due to injuries to Homer Bailey and Anthony DeSclafani, a five-man bench is a luxury the Reds can’t afford. And that means they can’t afford veteran slugger Ryan Raburn, whom the team released Monday. “I hope he finds a home,” Price said. “I think he’s still a good player. He could have helped us in a lot of ways.” Raburn may have been a luxury, but he wasn’t expensive. The Reds signed the 35-year-old to a minor-league deal at the start of camp that guaranteed him a $900,000 salary if he made the club, just a few hundred thousand dollars more than the major-league minimum.

  • 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.

  • On the Field at Kauffman Stadium Before the May 13Th Game Between
    On the field at Kauffman Stadium before the May 13th game between the Kansas City Royals and Colorado Rockies I was looking for Rene Lachemann to tell him that one of his former teammates wanted to see him. But Rene was not around, so I began asking different Rockies players and staff if they had seen Mr. Lachemann. All of them responded with the same reply, “You will hear him before you see him.” Soon it was discovered what they meant as the bench coach of the Rockies made his way up from under the stadium where he had been working with one of the catchers, and his booming voice could be heard. This voice has been heard by many major league and minor league players for many years as Rene Lachemann has managed and coached and trained these players in the finer points of the game. Rene was born in Los Angeles California and is the youngest of three brothers to have long careers in professional baseball. Rene served as a batboy for the Los Angeles Dodgers from 1959 to 1962, went to the University of California and was signed by the Kansas City Athletics in 1964 as a catcher. He played for the KC A’s in 1965 and 1966 and moved with the team to Oakland appearing in games in 1968. He began managing in the Oakland minor leagues in 1973 spending 5 seasons in the A’s system before going to the Seattle Mariners organization. He took his first major league managers job in 1981 with the Mariners succeeding Maury Wills, and led the M’s from 1981-1983.

  • Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings May 5, 2018
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings May 5, 2018 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1996-Eric Davis ties a major league record by hitting a grand slam home run for the second game in a row MLB.COM Back-to-back HRs get Reds back in win column Romano, bullpen combine to hold Marlins to 1 run May 4th, 2018 By Jeff Wallner Special to MLB.com 12:15 AM ET CINCINNATI -- The Cincinnati Reds came into Friday's game ranked fourth in the National League in on-base percentage, but it had yet to translate into runs. The Reds also did well in that category last year. Interim manager Jim Riggleman said the difference this season has been a lack of home runs, so far. That changed in the first inning on Friday, when Eugenio Suarez and Adam Duvall hit back-to-back homers, and Sal Romano pitching 5 1/3 solid innings, to lift the Reds to a 4-1 victory over the Marlins at Great American Ball Park. "It was a really good start," said Suarez of the big first inning. "When you score those four runs in the first inning, everybody gets comfortable. When we put it all together -- defense, pitching and hitting -- we can win a lot of games." Marlins left-hander Wei-Yin Chen ran into trouble in the first by allowing a single and a walk to begin Friday's game. His 1-2 pitch to Suarez, an 82-mph slider, landed in the upper deck in left field, putting the Reds ahead, 3-0.

  • Designated Hitters and Subesquent Team Scoring
    DESIGNATED HITTERS AND SUBESQUENT TEAM SCORING PERFORMANCE IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL A RESEARCH PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF SCIENCE BY SARAH E. CHO DR. HOLMES FINCH – ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA JULY 2020 2 ABSTRACT RESEARCH PAPER: Designated Hitters and Subsequent Team Scoring Performance in Major League Baseball STUDENT: Sarah E. Cho DEGREE: Master of Science COLLEGE: Teachers College DATE: July 2020 PAGES: 27 The Designated Hitter (DH) rule in Major League Baseball (MLB) is a topic of great debate. In the National League (NL), all players take a turn at bat. However, in the American League (AL), a DH usually bats for the pitcher. MLB pitchers typically do not have strong batting averages. The DH rule was created to increase a team’s offense. This study looked at whether there is an apparent difference between the AL and the NL. In theory, a DH will lead to more hits, more runs, and therefore a higher scoring game. This study looked at the average runs per game and total home runs for the AL and NL during the 1998 through 2018 regular seasons. Since the assumptions of parametric multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) were not met, a nonparametric analysis was used. The permutation test for multivariate means results showed an apparent difference between the two leagues (p < .05). A quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) was used as a follow up test and showed home runs as the variable driving the difference between the two leagues. Therefore, the AL has better scoring performance than the NL.
