Arenado doubled, but ultimately it was a poor offensive night for the Cardinals, allowing only five hits, with no players getting two, and they lost 1-3 to the Reds in the series opener. It was a game they could have won, as they had two men on base with no outs in the fifth inning, but a bunt went awry, and then a key double play followed.
The division rivals face off in Game 2, with Mikolas for the Cards against Singer for the Reds. At odds of -135, the Reds will start as favorites to also take Game 2. The Cardinals veteran has made 21 career appearances against the Reds, and he didn't fare particularly well: against Cincinnati, he has a career-high ERA of 5.80 and allowed 23 home runs in 107.0 IP.
The Reds' rotation has proven to be one of the most solid in MLB: Greene, Lodolo, Martinez, and Singer. Martinez had a strong Game 1, and it seems likely that Singer can continue to do so: 4-0 in 27.1 IP, he has a 3.62 ERA, but he averages more than one strikeout per inning.
