The Cubs went 15-4 versus the Reds in 2016. That .789 winning percentage was Chicago's best in a season against Cincinnati since going 21-1 (.955) in their meetings in 1945.

The Cubs have given up four or more runs in each of their last six games. This is their longest such streak since giving up 4+ runs in 11 consecutive games, June 30-July 10, 2016.

Opponents are batting just .156 (17/109) with runners in scoring position against Cincinnati's pitchers this season. Only the Astros (.151) have a lower opponent BA with RISP.

Zack Cozart is batting .419 (13/21) in home games this season, which is fourth highest in the NL (minimum 1.55 PA/team G). He hit .333 in home games in April last season.

Jon Lester is 0-0 in 2017, becoming just the second MLB pitcher since 1913 to have a no decision in each of his first three starts of a season despite going 5+ innings and allowing no more than one run in each start (John Thomson, Atl, 2006). Since 1913, no pitcher has done this in his first four starts of any season (streaks exclude any relief appearances).

In his brief career, opponents have just .188 (15/80) against Tim Adleman when there are two outs in an inning, compared to .270 (51/189) when there are one or zero outs.

CINCINNATI -- Chicago Cubs piutcher Jake Arrieta will face the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park on Saturday, and it will occur one year and a day after he threw his second career no-hitter at the same venue.
Overall, the results have been positive for Arrieta in his first three starts this season. And, while he has seen the velocity drop, manager Joe Maddon doesn't appear to be concerned.

A year after no-hitter, Cubs' Arrieta faces Reds

CINCINNATI (AP)  After a sputtering start, the Cubs' offense is finally rolling. And it's no surprise that they're breaking out at Great American Ball Park, a place that's just their style.
Wilson Contreras hit his first career grand slam and Anthony Rizzo and Jason Heyward added three-run shots on Saturday, powering Chicago to a 12-8 victory over the Cincinnati Reds.
