The Reds (57-78) couldn’t hang on for the sweep of the Cardinals yesterday, but instead they move on to today’s Labor Day matchup against the New York Mets. The Reds look to play spoiler once again, hoping to prevent the Mets from sneaking into the playoffs and defending their National League pennant from last year. Also, Jay Bruce will be in attendance once more.
Starting Pitchers
Robert Stephenson will make his third start this season for the Reds after having started the year in the rotation due to Homer Bailey’s injury. Now with September callups and Bailey injured again, Bob Steve will get his due process at the Major League level.
