Cincinnati halted the Indians' three-game winning streak with a 5-1 win on Monday night and Scott Schebler homered for the third game in a row. Carlos Carrasco will make his first start since May 15 when he lasted only 3 2/3 innings after allowing five runs on six hits. Carrasco has been dealing with pectoral tightness which caused him to miss a start. Amir Garrett has made seven appearances this season and five have been quality starts, but he was roughed-up in his last outing at the Chicago Cubs. However, Garrett has a 2.70 ERA at home where he has allowed only six runs with 18 strikeouts in 20 innings. Cleveland has lost seven games in a row against NL teams, including the World Series, and they have lost 19-of-26 interleague road games against left-handed starters dating to the last two seasons. Cincy has also won eight of its last 11 home games. Play the Reds.
