Reds cancel post-game fireworks show after Friday's game against the Mets

De La Cruz said he wanted to learn English so that he could speak directly to the media and fans. "It's so important to me because now you guys understand what I say," he said. "And it's important to fans to understand me, and me understand the fans. I've put a lot of work on my English to talk with you guys, and I think I'm doing a good job."

CINCINNATI — The Cincinnati Reds will not have its post-game fireworks show after Friday's game against the New York Mets, the team announced on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The team said the fireworks show will not be happening due to the water level in the Ohio River.

The Reds said because of how high the water is, it would be unsafe to operate the fireworks barge.

The boys are back tomorrow for the first City Connect Friday of the season!
