Mason Williams is the grand nephew of the late Walt No Neck Williams. Walt was an outfielder, a real hustler, not a power guy, played best for the Chisox. He was a fan favorite.
Hope Mason has a good night tonight in his first Reds start.

That's a major league nickname.

It would stink if Mason's first game was jarring.

"At first, Williams bristled at the nickname, but he grew to accept it. As he once told famed sportswriter Jimmy Cannon, “They can call me anything, as long as I’m in the big leagues.”

You can't make this stuff up:
"As can be seen on his 1969 Topps card, Williams had one of the shortest necks around, so short in fact that he earned the nickname of “No Neck.” So it is with some irony that we should note that Williams is wearing a turtleneck shirt under his powder blue Chicago White Sox road uniform. Why would a player nicknamed No Neck need a turtleneck? That will have to remain one of the game’s great mysteries."
A mystery indeed.

Another fantastically executed rundown by The Reds.
Aye

Reds botch a run down, ball clanks off Votto's glove. Thom focuses on the throw for some reason.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Red Raindog (07-27-2018)
Voto botches a catch on the rundown.
He's not a good defender. Are we allowed to say that?
Just waiting for the back breaking HR
Not this time despite the walks and misplay.
