Chad Wallach gets start for Reds on Sunday

Cincinnati Reds catcher Chad Wallach is batting eighth against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday.

What It Means:

Wallach takes over for Tucker Barnhart (paternity leave) after being promoted from Triple-A.

The Reds have a fairly low implied total on Sunday (4.58), as they face Pittsburgh starter Jameson Taillon, who holds a 21.9 percent strikeout rate and forces a ton of ground balls (1.05 grounder-to-fly ratio).
