This is a 9* TOP NL TOTAL on the OVER Reds/Padres.

Neither team has been involved in many high-scoring games of late, but I say that trend ends tonight.

The Reds have lost seven in a row. They've seen the total go UNDER in three of their last four, including in yesterday's 4-1 loss here.

Cincinnati hands the ball to Reiver Sanmartin (0-1, 6.14 ERA), while the Padres will look to build off yesterday's victory by turning to Joe Musgrove (1-0, 1.42).

Musgrove shut out the Braves over six innings in hi steam's 12-1 home opening victory.

Sanmartin gave up five runs off four hits and five walks over just two innings in a loss to Atlanta in his only true start of the season.

Luis Castillo will be returning to the Reds' beleagured rotation soon, and Sanmartin will move back to the pen.

Regardless, I see some regression in store for Musgrove and another long night ahead for Sanmartin.

This number is low, the play is the OVER.

Good luck, NP
