Los Angeles fell to 1-3 in their six-game homestand against Arizona (1-1) and Cincinnati (0-2) and tonight looks to avoid losing its first series against the Redlegs since September 6-8, 2013. Following the weekend series against the Reds and a travel day on Monday, the Boys in Blue will begin a six-game road trip with a couple of three-game series with the Marlins (Tuesday-Thursday) and the Nationals (Friday-Sunday). Despite losing two straight games to the Reds, the Dodgers have won 17 of 22 games against the Redlegs since the start of the 2015 campaign. Los Angeles has also gone 9-2 in its last 11 games at Dodger Stadium against the Reds since August 14, 2015. The Boys in Blue swept the season series in 2017, 6-0, which was the first time the club had accomplished such a feat since 2006, when the club also took all six-games. The last time the Dodgers started the season going 16-22 or worse in its first 38 games of the year was in 2013, when the club also went 16-22. After the slow start, the 2013 Dodgers won the National League West division and reached the National League Championship Series against the St. Louis Cardinals.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIB: The Dodgers would like to wish lefthanded reliever Adam Liberatore a very happy 31 st birthday today. Liberatore has appeared in 11 games with the Dodgers this season, going 1-1 with a 2.35 ERA (2 ER/7.2 IP) and striking out eight, while holding hitters to a.185 average. The southpaw is in his fourth season with Los Angeles, going 5-5 with a 3.56 ERA and holding the opposition to a.221 average in 112 career games. IN A PINCH: The Dodger bench has proven to be very resourceful for Dodger manager Dave Roberts as the club currently leads the Majors with 23 hits by a pinch-hitter and ranks among the league leaders in pinch-hit average (.295, 6 th ), RBI (12, T-1 st ), OBP (.402, 6 th ) and OPS (.800, 5 th ). Chase Utley has been very reliable when being called upon off the bench, as he has recorded seven hits as pinch-hitter this season, which is tied for the most in the big leagues with the Cubs Tommy La Stella. His.583 batting average (7-for-12) as a pinch-hitter ranks second in the Majors, while his five RBI is the second most in the bigs. THE HISTORY OF BLUE & RED: During the 1970s, the Reds and Dodgers combined to win the National League Western Division nine out of 10 seasons. Cincinnati s Big Red Machine won in 1970, 1972-73, 1975-76 and 1979. The Dodgers Big Blue Wrecking Crew won in 1974, 1977-78. The Giants won the West in 1971, finishing one game ahead of the Dodgers. THE MAN THEY CALL SILVER FOX: Dodger infielder Chase Utley batted leadoff for the first time this season and went 1-for-3 in last night s contest, as he has gone 4-for-7 (.571) in his last three games. Utley has seen success throughout his career against the Reds, as he has slashed.298/.365/.542 with 53 runs, 18 doubles, 20 homers and 58 RBI in 89 career games. The 39-year-old has reached base safely in 13 of his last 14 games against Cincinnati since August 26, 2015, hitting.435 (20- for-46) with 13 runs, two doubles, two homers and six RBI along with a.536 on-base percentage and a.609 slugging percentage. THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH: Despite going hitless in last night s contest (0-for-3), Dodger outfielder Matt Kemp currently holds the fifth best batting average in the National League (12 th, ML) with a.324 mark. In 36 games this season, Kemp is slashing.324/.367/.523 with 13 runs, seven doubles, five home runs and 17 RBI in his return to the Dodger organization. He is currently tied with Chris Taylor, Yasmani Grandal and Kiké Hernández for the most longballs on the club, while also leading the Dodgers in batting average, slugging percentage and OPS (.889, 18 th NL). The 33-year-old has 264 career home runs, which ties him for 201 st on the all-time list, one behind George Bell, Brian McCann and Matt Stairs. Kemp s 1,224 hits rank eighth in L.A. Dodger history and his 222 doubles ranks seventh, one shy of Ron Cey.
