On Saturday afternoon, former Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Bronson Arroyo remembered when six-time All-Star Curt Schilling told him that he was too thin to throw 200-plus innings in a season.
Former Cincinnati Reds closer Danny Graves reflected on the feeling he’d get running out of the bullpen in the ninth inning, telling himself that he would beat the best hitters in the game even though he wasn’t the hardest thrower.
This weekend, Arroyo and Graves will both be inducted into the Reds Hall of Fame, along with former Reds executive Gabe Paul. Arroyo and Graves delivered speeches before Saturday’s game against the Milwaukee Brewers as a part of the induction ceremony.
