A shame it wasn’t more publicized, but I guess even that is good because WJ and BC aren’t looking for pats on the back. This is a great story and a great gesture by the organization.
This is one reason I have liked the Reds organization, they haven’t had too many of the high profile steroid abusers like many other teams. I’m glad that the superstar on the team (Jr.) did not come up in that mess like so many other superstars. They also gave Josh Hamilton the chance he needed to get going again. We should be glad our team has some integrity. Great Story

Very classy move by the Reds organization.

This just posted regarding Ricky Stone.
Unfortunately acts like this do not get the publicity that they deserve.
Suddenly, I’m more of a Reds fan than ever. Way to go Bob & Walt!
