Records: Reds 59-64, fourth place in the National League Central. Cardinals 82-42, first in the NL Central.
The arms: Today - RHP Josh Hancock (3-1, 6.45 ERA) vs. RHP Jason Marquis (12-4, 3.75); Wednesday - RHP Luke Hudson (1-1, 3.97) vs. RHP Woody Williams (9-7, 3.93); Thursday - RHP Aaron Harang (7-6, 4.45) vs. RHP Chris Carpenter (13-4, 3.74).
