Cincinnati Reds and Kansas City Royals Shortstop Showdown: Bobby Witt Jr. and Elly De La Cruz
Two of Major League Baseball’s brightest ascending stars will square off against one another this weekend at Great American Ball Park.
Those three wins for the Reds were wins number three, four, and five in the season-altering 12-game win streak that helped the Reds and De La Cruz explode onto the national scene. It’s a much different story when he’s on the road, where he’s slashing .293/.335/.494. That's still very good, but a significant drop off from what he's done in Kansas City. Witt Jr. enters this series on fire, though. In his last 30 games, he's homered 10 times, has 31 RBI, and is hitting .433 with just 17 strikeouts in 120 at-bats.
