In this story:


Elly De La Cruz became the first Red since 2017 to score 100 runs in a season when Joey Votto scored 106.

The 22-year-old continues to impress and do things that not many other players have done.

His 102 career extra-base hits are second-most by a Reds batter through his first two Major League seasons since 1900, trailing just Frank Robinson.
