Cincinnati Reds at Milwaukee Brewers
Reds: Johnny Cueto (4-2, 2.37 ERA) went 1-0 with a 2.79 ERA in three starts against Milwaukee as a rookie last year. He's lasted at least seven innings in seven consecutive starts. Cincinnati will take a 13-8 road record into Miller Park to begin a seven-game trip. The Reds won the final four games of their nine-game homestand. "We came in here and took care of business," said Jay Bruce, a .333 hitter (18 for 54) with eight homers in 16 games against Milwaukee. "We'll go on the road on a roll with some momentum. We plan on coming back (home) in first place."
The Under is 11-2-1 in Cueto's last 14 road starts.
The Under is 10-2-2 in the Reds' last 14 games following an off day.
Key Injuries - 2B Brandon Phillips (thumb) is QUESTIONABLE.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4
Brewers (-110, O/U 8.5): Milwaukee has lost five of six while averaging 2.0 runs. Milwaukee is hitting .204 in the past six games and has homered once in that stretch. "There are absolutely no excuses when you go out and play - you go out and you lay it out there and your results are your results," manager Ken Macha told the team's official Web site. "(But) our travel and sleep (and) rest situations over these last nine games have been difficult." The Brewers are 22-9 when they hit a home run and 5-11 when they don't. Braden Looper (4-3, 4.47) is 1-1 with a 7.71 ERA in two starts versus the Reds this season.
The Under is 20-6-2 in the Brewers' last 28 games following a loss.
The Brewers are 10-1 in their last 11 in game 1 of a series.
