Chicago Cubs vs. Cincinnati Reds Prediction

This offense has scored three or more F5 innings runs in five of their last six outings, and much like yesterday, they will face off with a pitcher they've already had success against this season.

Jameson Taillon gave up six hits and four runs when he faced the Reds back at the end of May. His ERA drops to a dreadful 6.43 when pitching in his home stadium, and opponents have scored three or more runs in the F5 innings in eight of his ten starts.

Cincinnati's offense is red hot right now, and with their pitching staff allowing a combined 36 runs in the last two games, it will need to stay hot if they want to even this series up.
