The Reds lost each of the first three games of their series against Pittsburgh, including a doubleheader on Tuesday that pulled the Pirates to within two games of the Reds for fourth place in the division. The Reds offense, a far cry from the Big Red Machine of the 1970s, scored just four runs in the first three games of the series in the usually offensively-friendly Great American Ballpark.
On the other side, the Cardinals continue their march towards the NL Central Division title as they host the Reds in a four-game weekend series. The Cardinals come in after completing a two-game series with second-place Milwaukee on Tuesday and Wednesday nights. On Wednesday night, the Cardinals rebounded from Tuesday’s loss to Milwaukee with a 4-1 win over the Brewers.
