Cincinnati Reds (7-5) vs Cleveland Indians (7-5)
Friday, April 16, 2021 at 7:10 pm
The Indians and Reds are polar opposites. The Indians rely on their pitching staff, as Cleveland is currently hitting .198 as a team this season. The Reds on the other hand are hitting .264 as a team with 20 home runs and rely on their explosive offense at a hitter's ballpark like Great American Ballpark. In my opinion, the Reds are bringing the better starting pitcher to the mound in this game. The Indians cannot keep up with the Reds if this becomes an offensive shootout, and therefore I will take the Reds on the money line at home where they are 5-1 to start the year.
