Cincinnati entered the All Star break winning 5 of their last 7 games and are 47-50 on the season and 22-22 on the road. Cincinnati’s games went OVER 8.5 in 5 of their last 6 games. Cincinnati is starting Frankie Montas in this game who is 2-3 over his last 7 starts with a 4.10 ERA.

Washington entered the All Star break losing 6 of their last 8 games. Washington’s games went OVER 10.5 in 6 of their last 10 games. Washington is starting Patrick Corbin in this game who is 1-9 on the season with a 5.57 ERA in 19 starts. Corbin has allowed at least 3 runs in 4 starts in a row.

All 3 games between the teams this season went OVER 9.5 with Cincinnati winning 2 of the 3 games. This should be another high scoring game with the pitching matchup. I like Cincinnati to win and the total to go OVER 8.5.

Pick: Cincinnati Reds ML
