awkward moment bottom 5th with Milw. starting pitcher Burnes. He seemed to faint and they paused for 7 minutes, then threw 2 wild pitches....heat exhaustion? very odd...prob good for reds.Burnes (42-24 career record) has a FIP of 3.10 whatever this means?
and he has faced 2,522 hitters in the major leagues. His earned run average is 3.34 (231 ER's allowed) and his career WHIP is 1.064. He has given up 484 hits (7.0 hits per nine innings) and has 179 walks.
The Brewers have gotten the better of the Reds so far this season, winning five of the seven previous meetings. The two teams will meet six more times, wrapping up their season series with three in Milwaukee July 24-26
Milwaukee ace and All-Star pitcher Corbin Burnes (7-5, 3.94 ERA) will start the series opener Friday against Cincinnati. Burnes has a pair of quality starts against Cincinnati in his previous two outings, including on July 7 when he held the Reds to three runs on two hits over six innings in a 7-3 Milwaukee win.
Burnes is 3-1 with a 2.80 ERA in 16 career appearances against Cincinnati, including six starts.
The Reds counter with another right-hander in Graham Ashcraft (4-6, 6.28), making his team-leading 17th start of 2023. In his last start on July 5 in Washington, Ashcraft snapped a personal three-game skid and won for the first time since May 28, scattering seven hits and one run over six innings in Cincinnati's 9-2 win.
Ashcraft is winless in four career starts against Milwaukee, going 0-3 with 10.13 ERA. He was tagged for a career-worst 10 runs -- all earned -- on nine hits over four innings in a 10-8 Milwaukee win on June 3 in Cincinnati.
Reds Winners of 21 of 27 entering the break. Joey Votto, who turns 40 on Sept. 10, has hit seven homers in 17 games. "The culture in the clubhouse, I've been witness to it," Votto said. "And things are changing for the best. It's a new generation. It's a new era in baseball.

Under again this time 2-1 Goawkward moment bottom 5th with Milw. starting pitcher Burnes.

RedsYea I saw.... I'll be watching tonight as long as this rain clears out. Radar showing it will. Moving towards Pittsburgh their game might not be so lucky tonightI am on the reds tonight!!! Brewers have struggled with lefties. go reds.
Odds up to -146.... I opened with Williamson now Lively listed or........ Maybe they know the Reds are Real and they just hit a bump like Rays and Jays or most who play... I say latterWhat's a matter-matter-matter Batter-Batter-Batter... Gotta-Gotta-Bunt-Bunt-Bunt wake up that Offense-Offense-Offense....... Vegas thinks something might happen tomorrow. Abbott gave up 7 runs in his starts this year and all were solo Home Runs
? 12K's tonight ?
Sunday Reds -124/11.... ??
I was leaning to Brewers earlier due to the pitching matchups/shutouts etc...but in this spot, i do like the reds more to avoid the sweep at home, could be a late-inning comeback...I'm on the reds train for today again at least...reds break out of it today....Bats cooled down as pitching heats up....
