Arizona Diamondbacks starter Ryne Nelson is back in the rotation with Corbin Burnes' season-ending injury. Friday's suspended game was completed.
After getting roughed up in Chicago last week, the Reds right-hander pitched a stellar six innings of just one-run baseball. He allowed just six hits and one walk and had six strikeouts, and 67 of Martinez's 102 pitches were for strikes.

The Reds won twice Saturday, June 7 at Great American Ball Park. The first time, it was in dramatic fashion as they walked-off the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 10th inning to complete Friday's series opener, which was suspended after six innings due to rain.
There have been two big differences in the Reds’ lineup of late. The most obvious starting place is Christian Encarnacion-Strand, who returned from the injured list, provided a homer plus a walk-off double in Game 1 and then homered in Game 2 to give the Reds a commanding 3-0 lead.
