Timeline
Donald Thomas Lutz III (born February 6, 1989) is an American-German former professional baseball first baseman / leftfielder.
He signed with the Reds as a non-drafted amateur free agent in 2007.
Within another few years, he became a member of the Germany national baseball team and traveled to Europe-wide training camps, which finally led to his signing with the Cincinnati Reds on July 15, 2007.
Lutz played his first two seasons for the former Gulf Coast League affiliate of the Reds.
In those seasons he played 50 games and achieved a .250 BA with one home run and 19 RBIs in the first season, while only scoring a .169 BA, 10 RBIs and no home runs the following year.
In his third season Lutz remained in the Rookie level but was transferred to the Billings Mustangs from the Pioneer League, where he had a .286 BA as well as 7 home runs and 28 RBIs.
After an impressive 2011 season for the single-A Dayton Dragons with a .301 BA and 20 home runs and the team's first cycle, Lutz was promoted to the Reds 40-man roster in 2012 and participated in 15 Spring training games.
Only a few days before opening day he was dropped from the active roster and sent to advanced-A affiliate Bakersfield Blaze.
There he played a not less impressive season than the one before.
Until mid-July he made 63 appearances and batted a massive 17 home runs and 51 RBIs.
After being promoted to double-A Pensacola Blue Wahoos Lutz continued with nearly the same statistics.
Despite starting his baseball career in his teenage years, and in Germany, Lutz first visited Cincinnati's spring training camp, reached Class AA and was placed on the Reds 40-man roster in 2012.
Lutz was the first German-developed player to play in the modern Major Leagues.

The following season, he played in a more limited capacity trying to break back into affiliated baseball from injuries, but still hit .323/.405/.600 across 19 games through the middle of the 2016-17 season.

On September 6, 2018, Lutz came out of retirement to play again for Brisbane in the 2018-19 Australian Baseball League season.
He had a relatively lean season, slashing .186/.312/.310, but was key in Brisbane's postseason run, going 4/10 with three homeruns to help the Bandits to their fourth successive championship.

Since then, Lutz has rapidly increased his skills, especially his powerful hitting that made him so successful.
After two years with the local team, he went to the Bad Homburg Hornets and played there for two seasons before he went to a baseball boarding school in Regensburg for one more season.
