The Cincinnati Reds are back in action in Great American Ball Park on Tuesday evening after Monday’s much needed day off.
They’ll send righty Brady Singer to the mound to start this one, the series opener against the San Francisco Giants. The Giants, meanwhile, will send former Cy Young Award winner Robbie Ray, and the lefty’s out to a pretty stellar start to his 2026 campaign after a solid season in 2025.
Because of that, the Reds have stacked their starting lineup with right-handed hitters, including the recently recalled Rece Hinds – he’ll start in RF tonight. Dane Myers is in CF for TJ Friedl, and yes, Ke’Bryan Hayes is at 3B looking to improve upon his league-worst -37 wRC+.
Negative thirty-seven.
First pitch is set for 6:40 PM ET. Lineups for both clubs are listed below.
