The Cincinnati Bengals are just one of the professional sports teams in the city that have been exciting to watch recently.
The Cincinnati Reds went on a 12-game winning streak and FC Cincinnati is on a 14-match streak without a loss. According to Olivia Ray of WLWT, Bengals’ head coach Zac Taylor met with Reds’ manager David Bell to discuss some of the messaging Bell is using and mindset the team has, and Taylor has been sharing that with the Bengals.
Whatever that messaging is, it’s definitely been working for Bell and the Reds, winning 15 of their last 17 games with young star Elly De La Cruz leading the way, hitting for the cycle in their 11-10 win over the Atlanta Braves Friday night.
Joe Burrow commented on De La Cruz, calling him exciting to watch and noticing the city rallying around him. The success of Cincinnati sports seems to be bleeding into each other and energizing the city.
Just spoke to #Reds manager David Bell about a meeting he had with #Bengals HC Zac Taylor this week…
Taylor told Bell that he’s been sharing some of Reds’ messaging/mindsets with the @bengals this offseason. Bell said he appreciates bouncing ideas off of Taylor. | @WLWT
