Greene got an extra day of rest during his most recent turn through the rotation of the Cincinnati Reds, however, with a postponed game and the MLB debut of Chase Petty giving him an extended chance to regroup. Regroup he did, and on Friday night against the Washington Nationals he turned in yet another dazzling performance.

Hunter Greene struck out 12, the second-highest total of his big league career, while allowing two hits over six innings and leading the Cincinnati Reds over the Washington Nationals 6-1 on Friday night.

For Reds players like Hunter Greene, Pilates is a way to stay fit and agile during a tough 162-game season. But they're not the only ones getting in on the action. Terry Francona said he's 'made so many strides' since starting with team instructor Robyn Cohen this season.
