Miami at Cincinnati

Miami is 21-42 on the road and on a five-game skid. They've lost the first two of this series, 6-1 and 5-3, getting outscored 36-19 over five games. Starter Zach Thompson is excellent at home in Miami's spacious park but he's winless on the road this season with a much higher ERA (3.86). The Marlins are 22-51 on the road against lefty starters and face a Cincinnati offense that is fourth in the league in runs scored behind slugger Joey Votto (28 homers). Southpaw Wade Miley (2.84 ERA) has been strong all year with the team 10-4 his last 14 starts. And the Reds have won eight of nine against Miami including five in a row in this park. Play Cincinnati.
