Quote:Bell's father, Buddy, spent 27 years in MLB as a player and manager and remains a vice president and senior adviser to the general manager for the Reds. His brother, David, has managed the Reds since the 2019 season.

"Our Reds family is overwhelmed with sadness for the Bells as they mourn the loss of Mike,” said Reds chief executive officer Bob Castellini in a statement. “This great baseball family blessed thousands of people over the 70 years it has devoted to our game. We are honored that Mike, like his grandfather Gus, his father Buddy, and brother David, wore a Reds uniform. Our hearts and support go out to Buddy, David and their families.”
