LOS ANGELES – Joining the Reds in Los Angeles to visit with teammates and check in with the training staff, injured pitcher Alex Wood joked with catcher Tucker Barnhart that he needed to drink a Red Bull before Monday’s game. He wasn’t used to staying up late while rehabbing in Arizona.

Wood hoped to join the team by mid-April, but he had another setback with back spasms after throwing a live batting practice session on the final day of spring training.
