Diamondbacks Game Preview #56: 6/6 @ Reds

After the game on Thursday May 5, the Cincinnati Reds had a record of 3-22. No team in National League history had won so few times over the first 25 games (the only AL team with a worse record were the 1988 Orioles, who lost their first twenty-one contests on their way to going 2-23). The Reds at that point were on pace to go 19-143. But then something clicked. Since that low point, Cincinnati actually has a winning record, having posted a mark of 15-13, the same as San Francisco Giants. At 18-35, they no longer possess the worst mark in the majors, having overtaken Kansas City (17u201035), though are still last in the NL, 1 1/2 back of Washington.
