Cincinnati at Pittsburgh

August 7, 2025
img6:40 PM Eastern

Cincinnati just took two of three from the Cubs and the Reds have gone UNDER five in a row. Pittsburgh has lost four of six, including its last two against San Francisco. Paul Skenes has a 2.02 ERA for the Pirates, but it hasn't translated into many wins as he is only 6-8 and they have won just three of his past seven starts. Skenes allowed four runs in five innings against Colorado on Saturday. Brady Singer has allowed only one run on seven hits in 13 1/3 innings his past two outings. The Reds are 4-0-1 UNDER in Singer's past five starts against the NL Central. The UNDER is 5-0 in Skenes' past five home starts and he is 7-0 UNDER against teams that scored two or fewer runs their previous game. Cincinnati has won six of nine meetings. Take the Reds and the UNDER.
