Cubs vs Reds MLB Live Stream Reddit for Series Opener
By Michael Luciano
After some historically great performances on the road against the Colorado Rockies, David Bell and the Cincinnati Reds will make the trip to Wrigley Field for a few games against their hated rivals in the Chicago Cubs. With All-Star Luis Castillo on the mound, Cincinnati could make up some ground in the tight NL Central race.
How to Live Stream Reds vs Cubs
First pitch from Wrigley Field is set for 8:05 p.m. ET. The game will air on NBC Sports Chicago and Fox Sports Ohio, but will also be available to stream via the MLB Streams subreddit.
Reds Lineup
The Reds offense will look to stay hot after becoming the first team in MLB history to record three home runs and five triples in a single game.
On the hill for the Reds is All-Star pitcher Luis Castillo, a Cy Young candidate with an 8-3 record and a 2.27 ERA.
Cubs Lineup
Kyle Schwarber will provide some power in the leadoff spot, with Javy Baez, Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo rounding out the heart of the order. Willson Contreras gets another night of rest as he is dealing with an ailing foot, so Victor Caratini will get another start behind home plate.
Right-hander Kyle Hendricks will get the start for the Cubs. Hendricks is 7-7 with a 3.49 ERA on the season, struggling a bit lately after an insanely strong month of May.
The Cubs could use this series to keep furthering their NL Central lead, while the Reds could climb out of the basement with a series win.
