Play: Over
Rating: 8/10*

The St. Louis Cardinals have won six of their last seven games and scored five runs or more in all but one game during that stretch. They're likely to stay hot at the plate here as the struggling veteran Bronson Arroyo (2-2, 6.86 ERA) takes the mound for the Reds. Arroyo was tagged with six runs on six hits and three walks with a pair of homers through four innings of a 10-4 loss at St. Louis on April 8.

Mike Leake (3-1, 1.32 ERA) takes the ball for the Cards. Leake has been excellent this season but he's 0-3 with a 5.64 ERA in five career starts against the Reds, respite limiting them to one run throigh eight innings of a 2-0 loss on April 7. It's also worth noting that the current Reds have a combined batting average of .301 against the right-hander.

The reeling Reds have dropped eight of their last nine games despite scoring a healthy amount of runs. I think we'll see more of the same today.
