The Reds, just as they solidified themselves as the National League's primary underdog at the start of the 2022 championship, are in last place in the conference as they approach the end of the first half of the season. Perhaps the only thing Cincinnati can hope for is a fight for the bottom spot with Washington.
The Reds' starting pitcher for the second game of their home series with the Mets will be MLB rookie Nick Lodolo, 1-2 and a 5.52 ERA in 3 starts this season.
Mets have to snatch as many wins as possible in a series like this
The Mets' main rival in the battle for first place in the National League East Division, Atlanta has scored what they had to. So, if Buck Showalter's team will not collect "their" wins in the series with the outsiders, which Cincinnati is, they can kiss their division lead goodbye very soon.
Max Scherzer, 5-1 with a 2.54 ERA in eight games, will start on the pitcher's mound in game two of the series with the Reds.
Head-to-head encounters
