Cincinnati at Pittsburgh

Rebuilding Cincinnati looks even worse than last season, stumbling all over with a winless road mark. The Reds are last in baseball in runs scored and on an 8-27 run on the road. Cincinnati starter Tanner Roark (6.23 ERA) is off a 9-15 campaign and struggled in his lone start of 2019. The Reds are 16-35 against righty starters, 23-48 on the road versus righties, as well as 3-13 against the Pirates. Pittsburgh plays its fifth straight home game and has shut out the Reds the last two nights. Starter Trevor Williams has already faced the Reds this season, winning 5-0, and the team is on an 11-5 run against right-handed starters. With the Pirates 25-11 versus any starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30, back the home team. Play Pittsburgh.
