Cincinati have really surprised everyone this season with their good showing of 20-15. Usually, they are the bottom few teams in the National League along with the nationals and giants but this time round, they have really caught many baseball fans off guard. However, their recent 5-3 loss to the Padres could be said to be disappointing. The Padres are going in the wrong direction and their hitters are really not doing their jobs. Last month has been wretched for them and they will try to forget about those memories.

Volquez will be on the mound for the reds and the bright young starter is always known for his nasty fast balls which brings him much success over the last 2-3 years. Josh Geer for the Padres has some what mixed fortunes and his 0-1 record does not really tell much about him. All in all, the tide is with the red and you would not bet on them against getting a win tonight, especially with their star on the mound.
