Rock, roll and Reds

CINCINNATI, May 11 (UPI) -- The Cincinnati Reds are looking to add some hits of a different sort to their climb toward a pennant this season.

The club has released a CD featuring local bands performing original songs about baseball and the Reds. The idea as a way to reach young fans was credited to former Reds star George Foster, The Cincinnati Post said.

Sales of the CD will benefit the Reds Community Fund, an outreach program for children.
