Welcome to the aggressive life.

After a long drought, it's exciting to be a Cincinnati sports fan again. That's me. Yes, Cincinnati is my adopted hometown. I love the city I live in. The Bengals have been darlings of the NFL of the past two seasons. And seemingly out of nowhere, the Reds, Cincinnati Reds have begun to turn things around, it's too far from

the playoffs to know how things are going to shake out. But man, the Reds have been in contention,

and I am totally rooting for them. And I want to go on record saying the new rules of Major

League Baseball may have saved baseball as we know it. So a few weeks back,

I got to be on the field for a postgame Q&A with three Reds players, Jake Frailey, Graham Ashcraft,

and T.J. Friedel as part of quote unquote Faith Night at the Great American Ballpark. That's right

besides being Major League Baseball Studge for the Reds.

Each of these guys are men of faith.

They're willing to make the aggressive move

to sit in front of a stadium of fans

and talk about it,

which I thought was incredibly brave.

Jake Fraley is an outfielder,

and he's a major contributor to their batting lineup after being sideline with a foot injury.

He's making the choice to delay season-ending surgery so he can get back on the field with the team he loves.

Aggressive.

And I love when he hits a home run.

He wears a viking hat and puts sausages around his neck and wax people in the dugout

with sausages.

I love that.

Graham Ashcraft, he's a right-handed starting pitcher.
