| | | CINCINNATI: CINCINNATI (AP) - Bryan Price's father worked for a savings and loan that had San Francisco Giants season tickets and would make some of them available to employees.
Any team was good to see. Two were best.
''So you go in there and battle for tickets to certain games,'' Price said. ''And I would circle the Reds and the Dodgers.''
He loved how the franchises were stocked with stars. He knew it would be fun watching them play his hometown Giants. He even dreamed of some playing or working for one of those teams.
That's why the last six weeks of spring training left him with a too-good-to-be-true feeling at times. He's managing the Reds, one of those teams he loved to see.
''It's almost a constant, surreal experience for me at this point,'' he said in February.
The surreal part gave way to reality pretty fast.
Starter Mat Latos had knee surgery the day spring training opened. Closer Aroldis Chapman got hit in the head by a line drive and is out for at least a month after having a plate put into his forehead. Starter Homer Bailey strained his groin. Relievers Jonathan Broxton and Sean Marshall aren't ready to start the season.
| | BALTIMORE: BALTIMORE (AP) - The transformation of the Baltimore Orioles clubhouse under manager Buck Showalter is complete.
No longer do the Orioles hope to win. They expect it.
When Showalter took over in July 2010, he inherited a team with the worst record in the majors. Having gone without a winning season since 1997, Baltimore could only hope Showalter's knack for orchestrating quick turnarounds would take hold in a town that had switched its allegiance from baseball to football.
By 2012, the Orioles were back. Baltimore won 93 games, beat Texas in the wild-card matchup and took the New York Yankees to the limit before falling in the AL division series.
After missing the postseason last year, the Orioles are poised for a return. They maintained the nucleus of a team that went 85-77 and was in contention to the final week, then added right-handed starter Ubaldo Jimenez and slugger Nelson Cruz to an already potent lineup that led the majors in home runs in 2013.
''When you have talent, you have confidence,'' right fielder Nick Markakis said. ''Put them together and good things usually happen. We've got that right now. We know we have a good team and we're going to roll with it.''
Although Jimenez and Cruz didn't come aboard until after the start of spring training, Showalter never wavered in his belief that the Orioles would challenge the defending champion Boston Red Sox and retooled Yankees in the AL East.
''I felt that way whether or not we added Nelson and Jimenez,'' he said. ''That's a poor reflection on me and my staff if we thought we needed more to win.''

*Reds-Orioles Preview* ======================
By NICOLINO DIBENEDETTO STATS Writer
Cincinnati (66-72) at Baltimore (80-57), 7:05 p.m. EDT
The Baltimore Orioles are building a seemingly insurmountable lead atop the AL East behind impressive success at home.
Another matchup with the sputtering Cincinnati Reds appears unlikely to slow them down.
The Orioles look to win an eighth straight series at Camden Yards and hand the Reds a ninth loss in 10 road games Wednesday night.
Baltimore (80-57) leads the East by a season-high 9 1/2 games over the second-place New York Yankees, and hosting a playoff series could be extremely advantageous considering the team is 12-3 at home over the last month.
The Orioles have hit 31 homers while batting .298 over that stretch, 40 points higher than their season average.
They got production throughout the lineup Tuesday, when all but one starter had a hit and five batters had an RBI in a 5-4 win over Cincinnati. The team was able to overcome a pair of rain delays that totaled over two hours.
"You do whatever it takes to stay focused for the game," said Nelson Cruz, who had two hits and recorded his career-high 91st RBI. "I think we do a really good job in those situations."
Baltimore is also proving to be strong on the mound with a 3.07 ERA over the past 15 home games.
Miguel Gonzalez (7-7, 3.61 ERA) has allowed three runs in 13 1-3 innings while splitting two games since being recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Aug. 24. The right-hander is coming off one of his best performances of the season, yielding one run and four hits in seven innings of Friday's 9-1 win over Minnesota.
Gonzalez is 1-1 with a 3.20 ERA in four career interleague starts, but this will be his first at home. He's facing a Cincinnati team that's batting .216 while dropping 14 of 20 games, and has lost eight of nine on the road.
The Reds (66-72) have also lost Homer Bailey for the season after moving him to the 60-day disabled list Tuesday. While Bailey may be facing elbow surgery, Dylan Axelrod (1-0, 1.64) will try to build on his first win of the season.
The right-hander matched his career high with eight strikeouts while battling through 100 pitches in five scoreless innings of a 7-2 win over the Chicago Cubs on Thursday. That came hours after he was recalled from Triple-A Louisville, a 10-day stint caused by a broken water main in Denver that forced a doubleheader and left the Reds seeking bullpen help.
Axelrod is facing the Orioles for the first time since allowing one run in 7 1-3 innings of an 8-1 win with the Chicago White Sox on Aug. 29, 2012.
Jay Bruce had two hits in the series opener, connecting for his third career grand slam in the eighth. The right fielder was 6 for 40 with no homers over his previous 12 games, but is batting .360 in his last six interleague contests.
Billy Hamilton, a contender for NL Rookie of the Year, is 9 for 23 with six stolen bases in six games. His 55 steals on the season are a Reds rookie record and the most for the club since Deion Sanders had 56 in 1997.
