It seems just about every time Elly De La Cruz steps out onto the field, he makes some magic happen for the Reds. The rookie did just that on Saturday, when he completed a trip around the base paths on just two pitches.
After an RBI single in the seventh inning, De La Cruz stole second on the next pitch. On the pitch after that, the 21-year-old successfully broke for third and even managed to swipe home plate after catching the Brewers infield off guard.
Football fans should consider Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray as a player who relishes being underestimated.
In CBS Sports’ Will Brinson’s NFL quarterback tier rankings, he placed Murray in Tier No. 6. That’s on the same level as Sam Howell, Jordan Love, Baker Mayfield and Desmond Ridder, and ahead of only rookies C.J. Stroud, Anthony Richardson and Bryce Young.
Murray responded with a simple tweet: “I love it.”
😂😂😂I love it.
Reds rookie Elly De La Cruz was a nightmare on the base paths against the Brewers on Saturday. During the seventh inning, after De La Cruz hit an RBI single, the 21-year-old proceeded to steal second, third, and even home in order to extend Cincinnati’s lead.
After taking second base with ease, De La Cruz broke for third base on the following pitch. William Contreras mimed a throw to third base but the bag wasn’t even covered as the rookie cruised in uncontested. He then took off his helmet before noticing a lack of awareness from Milwaukee’s infield.
Elly De La Cruz was unstoppable on the bases against the Brewers
Cincinnati Reds 3B Elly De La Cruz continues to be an unreal warlock sent to play baseball.
In the top of the seventh inning, with the Reds tied at 5-5 over the Milwaukee Brewers, De La Cruz singled to left center with 2 outs already on the board to bring in another runner, putting the Reds up by one.
This is where our fun begins.
De La Cruz stole second, and then proceeded to steal third…but he wasn’t done yet.

In the summer of 2021, Sha’Carri Richardson became a national story in the run-up to the Tokyo Olympics. After qualifying for the U.S. track team with a blistering 10.86 100-meter time, she was banned from competition for a month after testing positive for THC metabolites.
The suspension drew widespread condemnation, and Richardson’s fame grew in her absence from Tokyo. However, she struggled at first in her return to track, finishing last in the 100-meter sprint at the Prefontaine Classic.
That made Richardson’s 100-meter U.S. title Friday all the more satisfying. Her 10.

I don’t know if you were aware of this, but most WNBA teams fly commercial.
For whatever reason, this shocks and appalls certain people. The kind that doesn’t understand that chartered flights are pretty expensive. If they weren’t. everyone would take them all the time.
In light of recent travel nightmares — okay, really just that time Alex Stein asked Brittany Griner questions loudly — there have been for the league’s players to stop flying private.
Charter flights have been a bone of contention for a while in the WNBA.
