As the Cincinnati Reds enter their clubhouse for Spring Training in Sarasota, Florida, the first thing they see is a picture of Hall of Famer Johnny Bench. Bench is arguably one of the greatest catchers of all time. Above this giant autographed picture, is the slogan, “Prepare to Win.”

Bench, among other former Cincinnati Red greats can be found throughout spring training as guest coaches or just stopping by to check in and talk to some of the team.
