CIN (27-31): RHP Michael Lorenzen (1-1, 3.29)
First pitch: 7:05pmCT
Wada struggled in Washington, giving up 5 ER in 3.2 and taking the only loss in the series. He’s still looking for his first win of the year, after four times out. He has only one start against the Reds, his MLB debut last July, in which he gave up 1 run (unearned) through 5 in the 6-5 Cubbie loss. This group of Reds is 4-14 (.286) against him.
Lorenzen gave up 3 ER over 6 innings but didn’t factor in the 9-7 loss to the Padres over the weekend.
