KEY GAME INFORMATION
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.
PITTSBURGH: PITTSBURGH (AP) - The roars have faded. The giddiness of ending 21 years of futility and coming with a game of the National League championship series, too.
The Pittsburgh Pirates are in some ways just another NL contender these days. That dark cloud of two decades of losing is gone after a remarkable 94-68 surge and the playoff berth that came along with it in 2013.
Now the franchise needs to figure out what to do with the rest of its life. For three seasons a club that was a laughingstock when manager Clint Hurdle took over in December 2010 has slowly made inroads to relevance.
Suddenly, the ''World Series or bust'' attitude owner Bob Nutting has espoused for years doesn't seem so laughable anymore.
Press reigning NL Manager of the Year Clint Hurdle on what his team can possibly do for an encore despite a relatively quiet offseason and he responds with his usual eternal optimism.
''Excellence is verb, not a noun,'' Hurdle said. ''You're going to continue to push forward. Our goal is to win a sixth world championship. The fact is, we haven't won an LCS or a division series. We need to maintain our focus on the things we need to do.''

*Reds-Pirates Preview* ======================

By JORDAN GARRETSON STATS Writer

Cincinnati (7-10) at Pittsburgh (8-10), 7:05 p.m. EDT

The Pittsburgh Pirates got the best of the Cincinnati Reds in last year's wild-card game, but it's Cincinnati rolling into Monday night's opener of a four-game set in Pittsburgh while the floundering Pirates are searching for answers.

After suffering an 8-7 loss last Monday at home against Pittsburgh, the Reds (8-10) took the next two and have won four of five, matching their win total from their first 13 games. Cincinnati's starters have posted a 0.98 ERA in the last four victories after Homer Bailey tossed six scoreless innings in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Cubs.

A number of Reds hitters are enjoying good stretches, with Joey Votto hitting .368 with 10 runs in his last 11 games after going 6 for 25 through his first seven contests. He has reached base in 17 of his last 18 against Pittsburgh and was 6 for 10 in last week's series with two homers - including one off Francisco Liriano, who will start Monday.

Billy Hamilton is 7 for 18 with five stolen bases during a five-game hitting streak. Devin Mesoraco was 3 for 4 on Sunday with his sixth double, and he's hit safely in all nine games after missing the start of the season with a strained oblique.

"Little League, rec ball, whatever it is. This is definitely the hottest I've ever been," Mesoraco said.

The Pirates (8-11), meanwhile, have lost eight of 10. They collected 13 hits Sunday but were 1 for 6 with runners in scoring position in a 3-2 loss to Milwaukee in 14 innings. Andrew McCutchen was 0 for 6 for the fourth time in his career to snap an eight-game hitting streak.

Outfielder Travis Snider was ejected for his role in a third-inning tussle, which was ignited when Gerrit Cole took exception to Carlos Gomez's bat flip following a two-out triple. Snider likely faces a suspension.

"You're not going to get any badges of honor for what happened today," manager Clint Hurdle said. "You just try to move on after it happens and win the game. As far as galvanizing, all this does is provide tangible evidence to anybody who didn't think we were galvanized."

Pittsburgh will try to solve Mike Leake (2-1, 2.95 ERA) after he limited them to three runs and matched a career high with eight strikeouts over 6 2-3 innings of a 7-5 Reds victory on Tuesday. Leake, who also doubled and hit a two-run homer off Cole, has won four straight starts against the Pirates while posting a 2.49 ERA.

Liriano (0-3, 3.96) is in danger of losing a fourth straight start for the first time since April 17-May 7, 2012. He's compiled a 5.21 ERA in three outings since throwing six scoreless innings in his season debut.

Liriano, who beat the Reds in the wild-card game, fell to 0-4 in five regular-season matchups against the Reds on Wednesday by allowing three runs over seven innings of a 4-0 loss. Votto's seventh-inning homer was the fourth Liriano has allowed in 25 innings this season after not surrendering a fifth until he'd thrown 104 1-3 a year ago.

The left-hander received one run of support in 27 innings in those losing decisions against Cincinnati, and has been used to seeing Pittsburgh's offense come up empty for him in 2014. The Pirates have backed him with just three runs.

McCutchen, Neil Walker and Gaby Sanchez were a combined 14 for 36 (.389) in last week's series with Walker homering three times. Walker has seven homers in his last eight meetings with the Reds.

Russell Martin is 9 for 22 off Leake.

Todd Frazier has five home runs and eight RBIs over his last eight games versus Pittsburgh.
