Reds

The Reds took two of three from the Cardinals in St. Louis April 7-9. Cincinnati shut out the Cardinals in the both of its wins; the most times the Reds have ever shut out St. Louis over an entire season is four (done four times, last time in 1963). They blanked the Cardinals just once last season.

Cincinnati pitchers have given up at least one home run in seven consecutive games. The last time they had a longer such streak was August 9-18, 2016, when they allowed 1+ homer in nine straight contests.

The Cardinals have a 3.26 team ERA versus NL Central teams this season, compared to a 5.06 (45/80.0) ERA against non-divisional opponents.

Billy Hamilton has a league-high 10 stolen bases (in 11 attempts) in 2017. Hamilton has had 50+ stolen bases in each of the previous three seasons; the last Cincinnati player with a longer streak is Joe Morgan, who had five consecutive seasons with 50+ SB, 1972-76 (the longest such streak by any Cincinnati player since at least 1886).

Tim Adleman is 2-0 with a 3.33 (9/24.1) ERA and .216 (19/88) opponent average over his last four starts against NL Central opponents. Included in this stretch was a start against the Cardinals last September 26 in which Adelman threw seven innings of two-run, four-hit ball.

Lance Lynn has thrown 6+ innings while allowing no more than three hits and one run in each of his last two starts. The last Cardinals' pitcher to make 3+ consecutive starts with 6+ innings, three or fewer hits and one or fewer runs allowed was Bob Gibson (3), July 8-18, 1962 (streaks exclude any relief appearances).
