Prediction published on 8/7/24, 10:47 AM  by Carlos Zabala | Modified on 8/7/24 at 11:14 AM in MLB Picks

The Reds took Game 2 and Game 3, and the series will end with a Game 4 at LoanDeportPark. De la Cruz has been the Marlins' main problem and has had an incredible series. In this series, the Dominican is 8-for-10 with 5 RBIs, 5 runs, 4 doubles and 2 HRs. Referring to him, Marlins manager Schumaker said, "He's just a freak. You don't see that. The game is slow to him."

For the Reds' aspirations, another win on Wednesday is necessary. They can achieve it with the help of other hot bats like Stephenson, who hit a HR in the 8-2 victory and now has 8 for him in the last 22 games. With Tuesday's win, the Reds evened their road record at 27-27. However, in the 5 4-game series the Reds have played, they have lost the 4th game in 4 of 5. The Reds have won 2 and the last time they had 3 straight wins was on July 13 against the same Marlins.

For the Marlins, certain players have stepped up their performance after the All-Star break. Like Burger who leads the team with 17 HR and a .422 SLG. Edwards is 17-for-39 with two doubles, a triple and a HR in the last 10 games.
