CINCINNATI -- Using the trendy torpedo bat for the first time, Elly De La Cruz had a single, double and two home runs for a career-high seven RBIs, as the Cincinnati Reds routed the Texas Rangers 14-3 on Monday night.
The torpedo model -- a striking design in which wood is moved lower down the barrel after the label and shapes the end a little like a bowling pin -- became the talk of Major League Baseball over the weekend, especially after some of the New York Yankees utilized the model in a resounding sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers.
