The Pittsburgh Pirates and Cincinnati Reds are playing an MLB baseball matchup on Monday and the NL central series game starts up at 7:10 pm ET and is streaming from the MLB.com website and it will be at Great American Ball Park and comes as the team is .500 and looking to move up and the season is off to a solid start and these two teams are looking to stay on the positive side as they chase the Brewers.

Wandy Rodriguez and Homer Bailey will be on the mound for the teams and that is a solid matchup for the pitchers and they will be looking to stay strong so they don't tax the bullpens early in the series.

Rodriguez comes in 0-3 against Cincinnati over his last six starts and now he will try and turn that around as Joey Votto looks to keep his hot hitting against Rodriguez going.
