Debuts for athletes are precious, and they cherish them for life. The same was the case for the player for the Dominican Republic. But a beautiful move for the Reds has added to this big occasion. The Reds shared the video when Cruz’s move to Cincinnati was announced. The caption of the post read, “Your bags are here. You gotta go to Cincinnati.”

Noticeably, Cruz was unaware of what was happening. He had no answer to the sudden question of whose bag it that. It all started with the question, “Do you have all the stuff with you? Did you bring your video games?” The question left Cruz perplexed as he could not believe why the tag on the bag was there. They left him wondering but had a big laugh after he was told about his move to Cincinnati. The congratulations also poured from his teammates.
