After a four-game series at Great American Ball Park last weekend, the Cardinals and Reds will play a three-game set at Busch Stadium this weekend. This series will begin on Friday evening.
This will be the Reds’ first series under the guidance of Jim Riggelman. Cincinnati publicly announced on Thursday morning that Bryan Price was relieved of his duties as manager. This comes as the Reds sit at 3-15 to start the year - the worst record in baseball. The Royals are right there, too, at 3-13.
Riggelman had served as Price’s bench coach.
