Pittsburgh has lost four of seven and plays its third straight on the road. The offense is 20th in runs scored, 27th in on-base percentage, and 28th in slugging with little in the way of manufacturing runs (21st in steals). The bullpen is just 26th in ERA (4.68) and 24th in WHIP. The Pirates are 8-18 after batting .225 or worse over a five-game stretch. Cincinnati plays its sixth consecutive home contest with a bullpen that is seventh in ERA (3.43) and eighth in WHIP. The Reds are 61-44 against a team with a bullpen ERA of 4.20 or worse, so back home field. Play Cincinnati.
