Game 7: Reds at Brewers (7:40 PM ET) - Lodolo vs. Cortes
It’s a battle of lefties on the mound!
The Cincinnati Reds are in Milwaukee this fine Thursday evening where they’ll fortunately get to take on the Brewers under the roof at what used to be called Miller Park.
The forecast for this game (and for much of the series) is about as dependably rainy as it gets, so it’s good timing that the Reds are in Milwaukee and not trying to cram in a series outside.
Nick Lodolo and Nestor Cortes will share the mound to begin this one, the two lefties coming off incredibly different first starts of their respective seasons. Lodolo, while he failed to initiate a ton of swings and misses, was incredibly effective in his win, while Cortes allowed about a billion dingers to the New York Yankees - his former club - in his season opener.
First pitch is set for 7:40 PM ET, which the title of this gamethread already told you.
