Elly De La Cruz Shatters Records | Cincinnati Reds News

Elly De La Cruz is rewriting history, becoming the second player ever to smash 200 extra-base hits and swipe 150 bases in his first four seasons—joining Juan Samuel from the ’80s. After being snubbed for the All-Star team, he’s exploded since the break, crushing homers and making dazzling plays. Even with a hamstring setback, he’s crushing the ball with authority, hitting the other way for better balance and pitch recognition. Meanwhile, Spencer Steer is heating up too, blasting his 16th homer—including an inside-the-parker—and joining an elite 14-player club with 80+ homers and 50+ steals, alongside legends like Ohtani and Soto. Steer called the inside-the-parker “exciting,” even if he needed a breather. The Reds are back at it this afternoon with Rhett Lowder on the mound.
