C. Trent Rosecrans of the Cincinnati Enquirer talked about Cuban export Raisel Iglesias in his spring training rundown video yesterday. It was the first time hitters faced live pitching as the Reds pitchers took turns facing various Reds hitters.
Rosecrans says in the video:
It appeared to be really good, guys were taking checked swings. (snip)The early returns were very positive.
Here’s a clip of Iglesias facing Jesse Winker.
Rosecrans posted more than a few video clips of live batting practice on Vine, including clips of Iglesias, Winker, Michael Lorenzen and Anthony DeSclafani. Go check them out.
