CINCINNATI — The Reds were hoping Rece Hinds would give their lineup a boost when they called him up from Triple-A Louisville earlier this week.
So far, he's delivered.
Hinds has eight hits, including two home runs, three doubles and one triple in 16 at-bats. He made history this week, becoming just the third player since 1901 to record a single, double, triple, home run and stolen base through three career MLB games.
Elly De La Cruz accomplished that feat last season for the Reds. He was the first player to do it since Bill Bruxton in 1953.
No one is expecting Hinds to be the next De La Cruz, but he's certainly off to a promising start. The Reds host the Marlins this weekend in their final series before the All-Star break. They'd like nothing more than for Hinds to continue to hit at a high level over the next three games.
