The Guardians of Cleveland? That sounds almost as impressive as the Schmucks of New Jersey, but not quite.  Still, you gotta admit it sounds more defensive than the Browns of Cleveland.. 
Maybe the Reds could change the name to the South Cincinnati Purples after the Chicago song, South California Purples just because it's a bad ass song..

Probably about the 3rd inning of the 2nd game.

I thought we were just kidding around.

David Bell said it will be close for Nick Senzel being ready on opening day. Senzel still isn’t running 100% yet, but he made a step today joining some individual defense drills.

The running progression is the final step.

Reds won a game and lost a game. I know Spring Training is more about prep for the season and these games really don't matter in the big picture. However, nice to get a win regardless.

Watched a few Spring Training games. I like the new rules. Glad to see the pitcher throw the ball quickly between pitches. Glad to see no shift and the more base hits as a result. More steals with the larger bases and toss over rule. This is helping the game IMO.
