Myers Returns After Wall Collision | Cincinnati Reds News

Dane Myers bounced back from a terrifying wall collision that sent him to the hospital, now recovering with a shoulder contusion and minor injuries — but he’s grateful to be okay. The outfielder admits the warning track felt longer, throwing off his timing, and the initial rib pain and winded feeling were the real scares. Still, he’s proud he made the play. Manager Terry Francona called it a relief Myers avoided a worse outcome, and the Reds brought up infielder Ivan Johnson to fill his spot. Johnson, a 27-year-old utility player with seven seasons in the minors, got the call while at home and is thrilled — especially after starting the year on the development list. He credits faith and support for pushing him through, and his World Baseball Classic experience with Great Britain helped build his confidence. He’s ready to play multiple positions for the Reds.
