We said we would update what several probable Louisville Slugger Field regulars are doing at Reds Spring Training on a weekly basis. But, Wednesday’s game proved to be a big one for several possible Bats and, thus, we felt it worthy of its own post. The Reds beat the Diamondbacks 14–6.

Finally, Donald Lutz went 2 for 3 with 5 RBIs. The slugger mashed a double and a home run while also scoring two runs. He had a decent day.
