Truck Day is here! Reds load up spring gear

CINCINNATI -- A light snowfall was enough to close schools throughout Greater Cincinnati on Tuesday, and temperatures are expected to nosedive to near zero degrees later in the week. Nevertheless, a sign of spring still sprung from the loading dock inside of Great American Ball Park.

A truck with a 53-foot trailer arrived and backed in, ready to be loaded with all the equipment for Spring Training.

"This is Day 1. This is where the organization comes together," Reds home clubhouse assistant Tony Walters said. "We work together -- the field staff all the way to the executive offices -- and this is where everybody's stuff comes and we get our start.
