Sal Stewart sets Cincinnati Reds rookie RBI record

Cincinnati Reds rookie Sal Stewart has set a new franchise record for RBIs in a single season. During a 10-8 victory over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field, Stewart recorded his 101st RBI, surpassing the previous rookie record of 101 set by Jim Greengrass in 1953.

Stewart contributed a solo home run in the fifth inning—his 29th of the season—and an RBI single in the sixth to help secure the win. His performance has fueled ongoing discussions regarding the National League Rookie of the Year race, as he is currently on pace to lead all of Major League Baseball in RBIs, a feat not achieved by a rookie since Ted Williams in 1939.
