Cincinnati goes for the sweep after winning the first two games of the series, including 5-1 on Tuesday when Spencer Steer hit a tiebreaking three-run homer in the Reds' four-run seventh. The Reds have gone UNDER 11 of 13 overall and six of seven on the road. Chicago has stayed UNDER five of seven home games overall and seven of eight home games against Cincinnati. The Cubs have lost five of six against teams with winning records and the Reds have won five straight versus teams that allowed at least five runs their previous game. Andrew Abbott has allowed only nine runs his past 28 innings following a 6-2 win over Tampa Bay when he gave up a run on two hits in six innings on July 26. The wind will be blowing in from right field about 10 mph. Take the Reds and the UNDER.
