1* free play on CIN@COL to go UNDER the total...

The Reds are in a three way tie for second place in the NL Central, and they host the Colorado Rockies in the rubber match of a three game set at Great American Ballpark this afternoon. The Reds tied the series with a 4-3 win in Game 2, and we could see another low scoring contest here in this matinee on Wednesday.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - Cincinnati will hand the ball to Raisel Iglesias, who has pitched very well in Cincinnati so far. He allowed three runs on 14 hits, striking out a dozen in 11.2 innings in two home starts. The Rockies will counter with 26 year old right-hander Chad Bettis, who makes his first career start against the Reds.

2. Previous History - The Rockies may trend over at home, but they've gone under in four of their last five on the road. They've also trended under at a rate of 7-2-1 in their last 10 road games with Bettis on the mound.

3. X-Factor - The Rockies have gone under in eight of their last 10 when Bettis starts.
Selection: This is a play on COL@CIN to go UNDER the total.
