Ha-Seong Kim returns after a three-game absence to hit eighth and play short in Cincinnati. He has a .095 average with no extra-base hits in 12 games and 42 at-bats following an injured-list start, and he is getting a chance after working out of a slump. Jorge Mateo remains in the lineup as designated hitter, hitting seventh, going 6-for-16 (.375) with four RBIs over his last four games and hitting his third homer Saturday. Austin Riley returns to hit sixth and play third, moving Mauricio Dubon back to left field, while Chadwick Tromp catches and hits ninth. Spencer Strider starts for Atlanta with a 3-0 record and 3.46 ERA, facing only five current Reds players; Cincinnati hitters are 7-for-18 (.389) with four RBIs, seven strikeouts, and one walk. JJ Bleday moves to the three-hole after a two-run homer in Saturday’s 5-2 loss, and Sal Stewart drops to cleanup.
