Reds Legends of Crosley Field

Reds Legends of Crosley Field is a bronze sculpture group featuring four life-size figures depicting legendary Cincinnati players in different game positions. The statues are installed at the main entrance of Great American Ball Park and show the players in dynamic poses as if caught during play.

The bronze group was created in 2003 by artist Tom Tsuchiya and honored four players from the historic Crosley Field stadium era. The selection of figures was based on fan votes that determined which players Cincinnati supporters considered most important to Reds history.

The sculptures depict local baseball heroes in a recreated game scene that fans immediately recognize and connect to their own ballpark experiences. The site functions as an open monument where people stop to take photos and share stories about these players.

The sculptures are located directly at the stadium entrance and are freely accessible without admission throughout the year. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes to explore the area and allow time for photos.

The figures were not positioned based on art history conventions but directly reflect fan sentiment and memories of the ballpark. This makes the group a rare public art installation where actual baseball supporters decided how their heroes should be portrayed.
