The last time these two teams met at Great American Ball Park, Trey Mancini and Eric Hosmer were in the Cubs starting lineup and Wil Myers was the Reds’ right fielder.
None of those guys are still on the teams in question, though Mancini was briefly in the Reds organization before they let him go this week.
Meanwhile, when the teams last faced each other, early this month at Wrigley Field, the Cubs won three of four and outscored the Reds 46-24. Fun times!
For more on the Reds, here’s Wick Terrell, manager of our SB Nation Reds site Red Reporter.
