Pittsburgh at Cincinnati

The MLB season is underway, and in this game the Cincinnati Reds will play host to their division rival, the Pittsburgh Pirates. Pittsburgh will go with Francisco Liriano, who after a stellar first season in Pittsburgh, did not have a strong campaign a year ago as he finished at 7-10. Cincinnati has really had a lot of success against him in his career as they have beaten him all five times he has started against him where his ERA is 4.14. Johnny Cueto on the otherhand, not only dominated a year ago winning 20 games with a stingy 2.25 ERA, he has owned the Pirates where his career resume stands at 18-4, with three shutouts, and a combined ERA of 2,21. He should have a big crowd behind him here, and expect him deliver once again. Make the play on Cincinnati.
