Cincinnati Reds Ace Abernathy Shines In Early Season
Veteran reliever Ted Abernathy, 34, chases a steady role with the Cincinnati Reds after a 1966 mobile tour via Chicago and Richmond. He has appeared in eight games this season, including seven of 10 wins, as Cincinnati tops NL standings with a 10-3 start. Abernathy’s hustle and history of 84 appearances in 1965 underscore his value, while manager Dave Bristol praises his desire to pitch and leadership on a rising Reds club. He notes a stronger early pace than 1965 as he aims for more saves.
