April 30, 2025 10:18 PM : De La Cruz went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.
Analysis: The star shortstop then went 2-for-3 with a run scored in the nightcap -- the only run the Reds would score across the entire twin bill. De La Cruz leads the majors with 13 steals through 31 games to go along with a .281/.348/.438 slash line, five homers 21 runs and 24 RBI. He's currently in the midst of a 14-game hit streak and is batting .352 (19-for-54) during that stretch.
