Steven Beitashour enjoying life in L.A.

Former Reds defender disappointed he couldn't reach a deal to return, but is glad he'll soon have reunion with old teammates.

Defender Steven Beitashour spent two years with Toronto FC, but wasn't able to reach a deal with the team to return.

It’s not the California sunshine that drew Toronto FC to pre-season camp in Los Angeles, according to former Reds defender Steven Beitashour; it’s him they want to be closer to.

The 30-year-old defender, who became a free agent last year after two seasons with Toronto, is setting up a new life in the City of Angels after officially signing with expansion side Los Angeles FC on Wednesday.
