Cincinnati Reds? Fans Hit Home Run in Free Pizza Deal

Cincinnati Reds? fans who love pizza are in luck this season thanks to a red-hot streak from the baseball team?s pitching squad.

Whenever the Reds strike out 11 opposing players, Reds? tickets holders for that game win a free small pizza, a roughly$6 value, from the city?s hometown favorite, LaRosa?s Pizzeria chain.

That equation is a great deal if you?re a Reds? fan, considering the team has already recorded seven of the 11-man strikeouts just one month into the season, on its way to matching the total of 14 strikeouts for the entire last season.

It?s not so great of a deal if you?re LaRosa?s, considering the family-owned chain has already handed out more than $100,000 worth of free pizzas.

?Nobody is excited about giving away free food,? said Pete Buscani, LaRosa?s executive vice president of marketing.

I see the Reds felt bad about the Nats losing 7 in a row at home so they just go in and get shelled right off the bat. Lovely


They are going to get swept.

That 8-2 homestand was pure smoke and mirrors. No good team needs that many extra inning/1 run games to beat the Marlins and Cubs.
