The last time Cincinnati Reds starter Wade Miley took the mound, he fired a no-hitter. He will look to follow it up with another great performance on Friday in Colorado.

Miley has pitched to contact with a career 7.1 strikeouts per nine innings (6.8 this season). He is allowing just 4.8 hits per nine innings and is issuing just two walks per nine innings to attain a 4-2 record with a 2.00 ERA.

He will be going against German Marquez, who has been significantly better throughout his career away from home rather than the setting for Friday’s game, Coors Field. Marquez has a lifetime 5.17 ERA and 20-16 record with 1.25 home runs per nine innings surrendered at Coors as opposed to a 23-18 record with a 3.55 ERA with 1.16 home runs per nine innings surrendered on the road.

The Reds entered into this four-game series leading the league in runs per game with 5.24 runs per game and ranking third in percentage of at-bats that result in a home run.

With the Rockies having the third-worst bullpen ERA in MLB and worst ground ball rate, the Reds should improve their record to 5-2 in Wade Miley’s starts.

The play: Reds, -105.
