The Angels followed up a sweep over the Dodgers with two losses out of three contests to the Athletics. The Reds are coming off a win over the Brewers, which snapped a 15-game winning streak for Milwaukee. The Reds are 3-2 in the last five games and 5-3 in the past eight.

Andrew McCutchen will try for a more productive performance after going hitless in his most recent game (0-for-4).

Despite yielding just one run on a Jose Trevino sacrifice fly in the seventh inning, Quintana was on the hook for the loss until William Contreras blasted a two-run homer in the ninth.
