Reds star Elly De La Cruz delivered another highlight for the ages on Saturday as the self-proclaimed “fastest man in the world” lived up to the billing against the Blue Jays.
De La Cruz, two months removed from making his bold claim, amazed fans inside the Great American Ball Park with an unreal, rounding of the bases to narrow Cincinnati’s 3–1 deficit against Toronto.
Facing a 1–2 count in the bottom of the fourth inning, De La Cruz launched a ball deep toward right-center field that bounced off the wall, setting in motion the latest electric moment for the rookie phenom.
