Cincinnati needs to lose the black drop shadow on their current caps and uniforms. Nobody will ever convince me that what the Reds wore in the 1970 World Series vs Baltimore were not perfect Reds uniforms.

Kevin Newman leading off and playing DH is something I hope to never see in the regular season.

That said, he leads off the game with an opposite field single and a steal of second.

Obviously no runs, I saw 2 walks early don't remember seeing much else in the play by play, how did Hunter look?

4 innings, 2 hits, the mentioned 2 walks and 3 Ks. Not bad

[WVRedsFan]

Obviously, a lot of pitchers are headed to the minors. I worry about the bullpen even more. Using some of these kids is like sending in a high school kid in to pitch. I still am confident that this team is better than 2022. Yes, its Spring Training, but I hate to see the Reds scoring 4 runs for a lead and after that get outscored 8-1 so far.

Was there a reason given for letting Stoudt get hammered like that?

People have been getting hammered on stout for so long it seemed like turnaround was fair play?
