The match between the Cincinnati Reds vs Pittsburgh Pirates will take place at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, Ohio on Thursday, July 7 at 2:10 PM ET and 11:40 PM IST.
The Pirates (33-48) are 2-3 in their previous five games and are coming off a humiliating 0-16 loss to the Yankees going into Game 1 of the doubleheader on Thursday. The Bucs had low expectations going into the season, and they have been met, with both offensive and pitching statistics consistently sitting at the bottom of the league in most statistical categories. Bryan Reynolds, who leads the club with a.256 average, 15 home runs, and 32 RBI, has been a bright spot for the Pirates.
The Reds (28-53) are 2-3 in their last five games going into Thursday’s doubleheader. The offence and pitching staff have both been generally underwhelming this season, much like the Pirates. With an ERA of 5.46, the pitching staff is by far the worst in all of baseball. With a.270 average, 17 HR, and 45 RBI this season, Brandon Drury has been their top hitter.
