The Braves and Reds open a four-game series Thursday night, kicking off Atlanta's lone visit to Cincinnati this season.
For the Reds, the series begins a season-high, 11-game homestand following a grueling three-city, nine-game road trip. Cincinnati began the trek with a three-game sweep in Milwaukee, then lost four straight at San Diego and dropped one at Minnesota before earning a wild 10-7 win over the Twins on Tuesday.
The Braves are coming off a four-game split with the New York Mets to open an eight-game road trip.
An off day Wednesday allowed the Reds to catch their breath after the Tuesday win.
