    I just watched the "highlights" on ESPN.com. The words on the front of their jerseys "Los Rojos" are Spanish for "The Reds". So, it appears they were having a Spanish or Latino Heritage Night.

    It's Hispanic Heritage Month. The 'Stros usually sport "Los Astros" on Cinco de Mayo.

    "The Reds are unveiling an alternate jersey starting in 2013. The Red jersey will have ‘Los Rojos’ emblazoned on the front, in white scripted letters. Los Rojos is Spanish for “Reds.”

    The Reds will wear the jersey at selected games.

    Pitcher Johnny Cueto sported a Los Rojos jersey this weekend at Redsfest, where the jerseys also were available for fans to purchase.

    “We’ll use it throughout the season at home games, with exact dates not determined,” said Phil Castellini, Reds chief operating officer. “We might also do it on the road, for example, if we’re in Milwaukee at the same time they’re doing their Hispanic Heritage night.”

    Karen Forgus, Reds senior vice president of business operations, said the team received feedback from fans before choosing the new jersey.

    “We found there’s an appetite with our fans that they love things with Los Rojos on it, because it’s fun,” Forgus said. “We’re not changing our main uniform. This is an alternate.”"

    The 'Stros wore their Los Astros jersey yesterday and the Texans cheerleaders will honor Hispanic Heritage today with some snazzy outfit.
