The Cincinnati Reds have won the last seven head-to-head meetings, including the first two games of this series, in which they outscored the Halos 14-6.

The Angels are 3-7 in their last 10 games and right-hander Jose Soriano is 0-2 with a 1-3 team record and a 4.80 ERA in his four starts on the season.

Cincinnati right-hander Frankie Montas is 2-2 with a 4.34 ERA on the season, and I expect a bounce-back game from Montas following two sub-par outings against Seattle and Milwaukee. The Angels are a more favorable opponent; Montas is 4-3 with a 2.59 ERA in 16 career games (13 starts) against the Angels.

3* PLAY ON THE REDS.
