The Cardinals hold a 9-6 edge over the Reds in this season's series, but the teams have alternated wins and losses over the last seven matchups. St. Louis has scored three or more runs in all nine wins, but scored two or fewer in each of the six losses.

Cincinnati won three of four against Miami, hitting nine home runs in the four game set. The Reds have scored 54.4 percent of their runs this month via the home run, the highest percentage in the NL and fourth-highest mark in MLB.

St. Louis took two of three in Milwaukee this week and lead the NL Central by 1.5 games over the Cubs. The Cardinals have gone 20-7 (.741) against NL Central foes since the All-Star Break, second best in baseball in that span -- only the Indians (18-6, .750) have been better.

Aristides Aquino hit two home runs against the Marlins, giving him 14 since making his season debut on August 1. His 14 longballs this month tie Greg Vaughn (September 1999) and Frank Robinson (August 1962) for the most home runs by a Red in a single month.

Yadier Molina enters the weekend riding a six-game hitting streak in which he's gone 12-for-24 with three home runs. The veteran backstop is slashing .321/.397/.518 in 15 games since returning from the IL after slashing .261/.286/.368 prior to suffering a thumb injury on July 6.

Dakota Hudson has not allowed a run in his last three starts, pitching 18.2 innings and allowing just seven hits over that span. He looks to join Bob Gibson (five straight in 1968) as the only Cardinals in the live-ball era to make four consecutive starts of 6.0+ innings with no runs.
