Don’t look now, but the Reds have broken off 3 in a row. They’ll get a chance to make it 5 in a 3 day span with another doubleheader today.
The big story for Game 1 will be the return of Joey Votto, who sat out in all three of those wins. He’s batting leadoff today, so let’s hope that a couple of days off do him some good.
A tantalizing pitching matchup in this first game, too. Trevor Bauer gets the ball in another 7-inning doubleheader, his third so far.
