Cincinnati is on a 5-4 run winning four of those as an underdog. The bullpen is ninth in the majors in ERA (3.67) and the Reds are 9-3 when their opponent scores five or more runs or more in the last contest. The Reds are also on an 11-8 run with four of the losses by just one run. Colorado plays its fifth straight home game, though they're 2-2 on the homestand surrendering 21 runs. The Rockies' pitching is 25th in ERA (4.71) and WHIP, while the bullpen is 16th in ERA (3.90) and 23rd in WHIP. Chase Anderson makes his first start with the Rockies after getting claimed off waivers last week. He threw just five innings with Tampa Bay. In the last two seasons, Anderson had ERAs of 6.38 and 6.75 with the Phillies and Reds. Control is an issue, allowing 35 free passes in 2021 and 2022 (72 innings). Colorado is on a 4-3 run with two of the wins by one run, including a 9-8 victory against the Reds last night. The wagering value is on the visitors to win the game or lose by one run. Play Cincinnati on the run line.
