GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Some Major League players like to roll into Spring Training with a fancy new car, but Reds second baseman Scooter Gennett's route to camp came in an entirely different vehicle.
Gennett and his family rented an RV for the drive to Goodyear from his home in Sarasota, Fla. An early arrival ahead of Sunday's full-squad report date, Gennett said on Tuesday that it took him 32 hours to make the trip.
"It might have to be a Spring Training deal every year," said Gennett, who got the RV so he could bring his dog, Leo, to Arizona.
