Cincinnati at Chicago

The Cincinnati Reds are off a big series at home vs. the St. Louis Cardinals, played last night, and now must travel to Chicago, where they could come in flat vs. a weak opponent in the first game of a four game series. The Reds have been great at home, but just a mediocre .500 club on the road.  Homer Bailey has a losing record on the season, and in 11 starts against the Cubs, has not fared very well, as he brings in a career 4.92 ERA. Scott Feldman has pitched exceptionally well, and over his last 10 starts has allowed two or fewer runs in nine of them. The Reds are just 1-6 in Bailey's last seven road starts, while the Cubs are winners of four straight behind Feldman at home. Play the home dog, back Chicago.
