The Los Angeles Dodgers head to Cincinnati to face the Reds in their series opener on Monday at the Great American Ball Park.

All that's between the Reds and the 6 p.m. ET Trade Deadline on Thursday are three key games against the superstar-laden Dodgers. But as they've often stressed as a club seeking a playoff berth, there was no looking ahead.

Chase Burns has reached some elite company in his first six starts in the majors. However, the Reds rookie right-hander is still seeking his first big-league win.

Bristol Motor Speedway will host the highest attendance for a single game in MLB history when the Braves face the Reds on Aug. 2 at the unique venue.

Chase Burns is the 14th MLB pitcher with at least 45 strikeouts through 6 career starts since 1901, joining: Paul Skenes Freddy Peralta Masahiro Tanaka Hyun-Jin Ryu Stephen Strasburg Felix Hernandez Mark Prior Kerry Wood Hideo Nomo Al Leiter Jose DeLeon Gary Nolan Herb Score

The Dodgers are 3-6 since the All-Star break and dropped the past two games to the Red Sox. On the other hand, the Reds are on a four-game winning streak and 6-3 since the break.
