Homer Bailey v. Jimmy Nelson

COMPLETE COVERAGE >

That sucked. Since the ASG, we've seen tons of defensive lapses, nobody in the lineup is really hitting right now, and things are looking pretty bleak. We need something to spark this team.

We have Homer Bailey. Homer Bailey has started 3 times against the Brew Crew this year so far, the latter two going fairly well. He'll face Jimmy Nelson, making his 3rd big league start. He shut out the Marlins in his debut but the Cards knocked him around.

We also have this.

She doesn't get out until you win. Do the right thing, Reds.
