 Cincinnati's bullpen allowed 11 earned runs in a four-game series against San Francisco, posting a 7.43 ERA. Entering that series the Reds' bullpen had a 3.23 ERA, best in the National League.

 The Athletics finished their nine-game road trip going 1-8, scoring four or fewer runs in all eight losses. They hit .211 in those nine games, including hitting .175 with the bases empty.

 The Reds are 7-3 over the Athletics since 2010 despite being outscored, 32-30, in those games. Of those seven wins for Cincinnati, six were decided by two or fewer runs.

 Nick Senzel (23-311 days) hit two home runs, both in the first two innings, on Monday, becoming the third-youngest Reds player with two home runs in the first two innings behind Jay Bruce on July 2, 2008 (21-90) and Johnny Bench on July 26, 1970 (22-231).

 Matt Chapman has slashed .315/.418/.704 when batting third in the lineup this season. That 1.122 OPS when batting third is the second highest in MLB, trailing only Anthony Rendon (1.220, minimum 50 PA).

 Oakland has lost six of its last eight interleague games, including losing two of three games to Pittsburgh over the weekend. Cincinnati has lost eight consecutive games against AL opponents -- only Seattle (nine) has a longer active losing streak in interleague play.

The Cincinnati Reds take their powerful bats into a stadium not known for being friendly to the long ball and up against a strong home-field pitcher when they open a three-game interleague series against the host Oakland Athletics on Tuesday night.
While the A's enjoyed a day off to collect themselves after a 1-8 trip, the Reds were pounding three more home runs Monday in a 12-4 win over the San Francisco Giants that capped a four-game home series in which Cincinnati hit 15 homers and scored 37 runs.

Surging Reds take aim at Oakland

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP)  A light malfunction almost stopped Mike Fiers' night from getting started. A high pitch count nearly prevented him from finishing it.
Good thing Fiers was allowed to take the mound and stay there all game because he made history doing it.
