If there's one thing about both De La Cruz and Caminero, it's that they play the game in a fun way . They are genuinely enjoying playing the game every time they are on the field, and they are the type of players who can draw attention to the game. Look no further than both their reactions after Elly De La Cruz 's play for an example of why they are two of their fan bases' favorites.
The Reds are quickly becoming one of the most fun teams in the MLB with their mix of young players, sitting first in a competitive National League Central division. The division could be one of the best over the season, as every team is within 1.5 games of each other and all are at least three games over .500.
The Rays are also a surprising team in the American League East. They are just 0.5 games back of the New York Yankees for the division lead, and sit three games over .500. The Reds lead the Rays 6-1 in the first of a three-game set. With the Yankees on a three-game win streak, Caminero and the Rays will have to bounce back in the next two games of the series.
