After helping Atlanta, Reds take aim at Braves

The Cincinnati Reds did the Atlanta Braves a favor on Sunday. Now the Reds will try to turn the tables on the Braves when they meet in a makeup game in Atlanta on Monday.

The Reds (69-75) beat the Mets 3-1 on Sunday with a two-run ninth-inning rally that ended New York’s nine-game winning streak. The Braves (78-65) beat the Toronto Blue Jays 4-3 in 11 innings and moved into a tie with the Mets for the final National League wild-card playoff spot.

“That was probably one of the top two or three most draining games I’ve ever been a part of,” Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said after the win Sunday. “It was great to see how we just hung in there and kept forcing the issue.”

The Braves will send Charlie Morton (8-7, 4.24 ERA) to the mound. Cincinnati is scheduled to start Nick Martinez (7-6, 3.67).

Morton beat the Colorado Rockies in his last start on Wednesday, allowing two runs in five innings with eight strikeouts. Over his past five starts, Morton has given up 10 runs in 27 2/3 innings, a 3.25 ERA.

Martinez has made 38 appearances, 12 of them starts this season, but hasn’t pitched in relief since Aug. 2. In his last start Wednesday against the Houston Astros, Martinez pitched 5 2/3 innings and allowed four runs (one earned) on six hits with three walks and seven strikeouts. He is 1-1 with a 3.86 ERA in career four appearances (three starts) against the Braves.

The Reds placed reliever Sam Moll on the 15-day injured list Sunday because of left shoulder impingement. Moll began to experience an issue with the shoulder three weeks ago during a series in Toronto and it got worse while warming up during an extra-inning game against the Mets on Friday.

The Reds replaced Moll with right-hander Casey Legumina, who has made three relief appearances, posting a 10.50 ERA.

Cincinnati caught a break when center fielder T.J. Friedl was deemed fit after leaving Saturday in the seventh inning after experiencing shortness of breath. He spent a couple of hours at a local hospital before being released. He entered the game Sunday as a pinch hitter and remained in the game to play center field.

But the Reds might be without second baseman Jonathan India, who left the game Sunday after his at-bat in the sixth inning with left elbow discomfort.
