Those red-hot Dodgers have cooled off, losing three in a row. They have their ace going in Clayton Kershaw, but this team is a long way from home facing a talented Cincinnati team that has won three in row. The Reds are 10th in baseball in runs scored and seventh in on base percentage. The Dodgers are 0-4 in their last four against a team with a winning record, while the Reds are 27-11 in at home versus a team with a winning road record. Cincinnati also has an ace going in Homer Bailey (3.42 ERA), who has struck out 181 in 184 innings. He's also on a roll with a 2-0 record and a 1.33 ERA his last three starts! Bailey has not allowed a run over his last 14 1/3 innings pitched. The Reds are 5-1 in their last six home games, so jump on the home dog. Play the Reds.
