PITTSBURGH -- When the Reds rolled into May in sole possession of first place in the National League Central division, it was the first time since 2002 they held such status on May 1. Friday's first day of May coincided with the first day of a significant challenge on Cincinnati's

CINCINNATI -- Dissatisfied with the rocky outings that have defined the beginning of his season, Andrew Abbott and pitching coach Derek Johnson felt it was time for the left-hander to return to the roots of past success.

CINCINNATI -- Run production and run prevention. It was a do-it-all type of night for the Reds' Elly De La Cruz on Tuesday. What was De La Cruz's favorite part? His offense provided three hits with a home run and four RBIs. The All-Star shortstop's defense contributed two nifty plays,

CINCINNATI -- Rehabbing from arthroscopic surgery in March to remove bone chips from his right elbow, Reds pitcher Hunter Greene has made progress and is well underway with a throwing program. On Tuesday, Greene was scheduled to long toss to a distance of 110 feet at the team facility in

CINCINNATI -- Just as the Reds' offense has finally provided some bigger output, designated hitter Eugenio Suárez went on the 10-day injured list with a mild left oblique strain.

CINCINNATI – The latest sign the Reds' offense is starting to hum? On Friday, it didn't make one comeback but two. And the hitter who sealed the win wasn't even in the original starting lineup. Nathaniel Lowe, who stepped in as the designated hitter when Eugenio Suárez was scratched with

CINCINNATI – In a final test before activation, Reds catcher Jose Trevino played a rehab assignment game at High-A Dayton on Friday. Getting five innings of action behind the plate, Trevino went 2-for-2 with an infield single, a single to right field, a walk and two runs scored in Dayton's

ST. PETERSBURG -- During Reds batting practice, shortstop Elly De La Cruz spent quite a while chatting and laughing on the field with a friend and fellow Dominican player -- Rays third baseman Junior Caminero. Later in the game, a 6-1 Cincinnati victory, De La Cruz then robbed his friend,
