 The Cubs are 5-7 against the Reds this season -- the only division opponent they have a losing record against. Chicago has lost four of the six meetings in Cincinnati, with its starting pitchers posting a 2.90 ERA and its bullpen compiling a 6.20 ERA.

 The Reds have won three in a row, scoring at least six runs in each. They're averaging 5.60 runs after the All-Star break after averaging 4.23 before it for an improvement of 1.37 - second-biggest in MLB (Astros, 1.39).

 In 12 games this season against the Cubs, Eugenio Suarez is batting .388 with five home runs and 16 RBI. No Cincinnati hitter has had more RBI in a single season against the Cubs since Tony Perez had 22 in just 10 games in 1975.

 Nicholas Castellanos doubled again Wednesday, giving him six in his first seven games with the Cubs -- the most by a Cub in his first seven games with the team since Dick Bartell also had six in 1939. Castellanos, however, has just one double and a .097 batting average in eight career games against the Reds, his lowest average against any team.

 The Cubs' Yu Darvish, Friday's scheduled starter, is 2-1 with a 2.17 ERA in five starts since the All-Star break, which includes throwing six-shutout innings against the Reds on July 17. Darvish had a 5.01 pre-All-Star break ERA, and that improvement of 2.84 is fifth-best in MLB among ERA qualifiers.

 Luis Castillo, slated to start Sunday's finale for the Reds, struck out a career-high 13 in Monday's win over the Angels. Among ERA qualifiers, Castillo is second in MLB with a .188 opponents' batting average (Astros' Justin Verlander, .168) and has the highest percent of swings that miss at 38.4. In the pitch-tracking era (since 1988), the pitcher with the highest percent of swings that missed in a single season was Pedro Martinez at 35.8 in 1999.

Cincinnati Reds right fielder Aristides Aquino is known as "The Punisher" for the way he attacks the baseball, and the rookie likely will receive no argument about the nickname from the Chicago Cubs.
After homering in back-to-back contests against visiting Chicago, and in three straight games overall, Aquino looks to continue his power display on Saturday as the Reds and Cubs play the third game of a four-game series.

Newcomers powering Cubs, Reds in series

CINCINNATI (AP)  Rookie Aristides Aquino isn't keeping mementos from his prodigious power display, the one reminding everyone of another Reds outfielder who wore No. 44 and slashed homers with a whiplash swing.
After taking so long to get this far, the thrills are enough.
