Dateline: Cincinnati
Brady Singer will try to keep the momentum going for the Reds, who have won two straight after an eight game slide. Singer is 2-2 with a higher than normal, 5.63 ERA which is about one run per game higher than his normal ERA. He will face the Washington Nationals, Miles Mikolas.
Singer has not been dominant but he has kept the Reds in games. Over his last five starts, he has pitched into the sixth inning in four of them which includes two quality starts. In his last effort, Singer allowed four runs to the Chicago Cubs in six innings. He allowed six hits and a walk, while striking out six in a game the Reds lost in 10-innings.
He has two career starts against the Nationals in his career with an 0-1 record and 11,05 ERA. He last faced them on July 21, 2025 in Washington. He lasted just 2 1/3 innings, allowing seven runs on five hits and two walks.
The Reds have a history with Mikolas through his seven seasons with the St. Louis Cardinals. The Nationals signed the 37-year old righthander to a free agent contract at the beginning of spring trainins.
Mikolas has a 1-3 record with a 7.44 ERA. He picked up his lone win this season in his last start on May 6 against the Minnesota Twins. He put together his longest outing with 5 1/3 innings allowing two earned runs on three hits and no walks. He gave up a home run to Matt Wallner which ended his day.
The veteran in his 11th season has faced the Reds 23 times, including 21 starts. He owns a 6-9 record with a 5.45 ERA against Cincinnati.
