The Atlanta Braves and Cincinnati Reds are set to clash this afternoon in Game 2 of their three-game series at Great American Ball Park. The opener on Thursday was a wild one, with the Braves eking out a 12-11 victory in extra innings to snap a six-game skid.
The game was a much-needed spark for Atlanta, which has endured a disappointing 2025 season marked by inconsistency and a slew of injuries to key players. Despite the win, the Braves are still trying to find rhythm, particularly on the mound, where their rotation and bullpen have been stretched thin.
Cincinnati, currently sitting third in the NL Central, is still within striking distance of a postseason spot. Although they trail the Milwaukee Brewers by 7.5 games in the division, the Reds remain in the thick of the NL wild card race. Their recent stretch of strong play includes a notable series win over the Los Angeles Dodgers, and they’ll be looking to bounce back after Thursday’s gut-wrenching loss.

Our Atlanta Braves vs Cincinnati Reds Prediction
On the hill for Cincinnati will be right-hander Brady Singer, who enters the game with an 8-8 record and a 4.60 ERA across 109.2 innings. While his numbers aren’t eye-popping, Singer has been relatively dependable, tallying 101 strikeouts and limiting home run damage with only 13 long balls surrendered. The Reds’ overall pitching has been a bright spot, with a team ERA of 3.85 and a WHIP of 1.23, providing the club with a solid foundation as they push toward the postseason.
The Braves counter with Bryce Elder, who has had a rough go of it in 2025. Elder owns a 6.29 ERA and 1.61 WHIP over 87.1 innings, and he's allowed 17 home runs along with 35 walks — troubling signs for a pitcher heading into one of the most hitter-friendly venues in baseball. With top arms like Reynaldo López, Joe Jiménez, and Chris Sale sidelined due to injuries, Atlanta’s pitching depth is clearly being tested.
The Reds have an opportunity to capitalize on Atlanta’s pitching woes and turn the page quickly after Thursday’s loss. Singer will need to keep the ball down and limit damage early, while Cincinnati’s offense aims to stay hot. With momentum still on their side and playoff hopes alive, the Reds are in a good position to respond in today’s matchup. Our prediction for Cincinnati Reds vs. Atlanta Braves: Reds to win.
