The Cincinnati Reds have scored 18 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their last nine games. The Reds have won 11 straight games when scoring four or more runs. Nick Castellanos leads the Reds with 85 hits and 37 RBI while Jesse Winker and Tyler Naquin have combined for 126 hits and 82 RBI. Tyler Mahle gets the ball, and he is 6-2 with a 3.56 ERA and 78 strikeouts this season. Mahle is 0-2 with a 6.16 ERA and 27 strikeouts in his career against the Brewers.

The Reds are 6-0 in their last 6 road games and 4-1 in their last 5 during game 3 of a series. The Brewers are 7-1 in their last 8 home games and 17-5 in their last 22 overall. The over is 4-1-1 in Reds last 6 overall. The over is 4-1-1 in Brewers last 6 overall.

Once again you can make a strong argument for either of these teams, as they’re two of the hotter teams in the league. Mahle and Peralta have also been soldi this season. This should be a fun contest. With that said, we’re getting plus money with the Reds, a team that’s won five straight and have won six of their last seven as underdogs. Give me the Reds.
