The Cincinnati Reds have lost their last eight series. They hope to end the streak this week against the San Diego Padres.
The Cincinnati Reds are finally home after a long West Coast road trip, and they host the San Diego Padres for a three-game series at Great American Ball Park starting on Tuesday.
Andrew Abbott will be going up against Joe Musgrove in the first game of the series. Abbott comes into this game with a 3.06 ERA and 41 strikeouts in 50 innings pitched. Abbott has not faced the Padres this season. In game two of the series, Nick Martinez will take the mound for the Reds and Michael King will take the mound for the Padres. Martinez has a 4.23 ERA on the season for the Reds, but has been much better coming out of the bullpen than he has been as a starter. He has given up 31 hits and 16 earned runs in 21 innings as a starter, compared to just 10 hits and two earned runs in 17 1/3 innings as a reliever. He has also been a much better pitcher away from Great American Ball Park.
The Reds and Padres will face off in a matinee game at 1:10 ET on Thursday. Frankie Montas will take the hill for the Reds, while Matt Waldron will take the bump for the Padres.
