Mike Leake wasn't too sharp the last time the Cincinnati Reds faced the Philadelphia Phillies , and the result was a historic defeat.
But if Leake has the same stuff as he did in his last start, the result could be a lot different this time.
The NL Central-leading Reds will try to end a six-game losing streak to the Phillies on Monday night in Philadelphia as these teams square off for the first time this season.
The last meeting saw Leake take the loss as he was tagged for four runs in six innings of a 6-4 defeat Sept. 1. That marked the first time the Reds had been swept by Philadelphia in a four-game home series since 1916.
Cincinnati (74-48) has lost 15 of 19 in Philadelphia (56-65), dropping three of four in their last series there May 23-26, 2011.
"That's probably been our toughest spot to play in the last couple of years - or them, period," manager Dusty Baker told the Reds' official website before Sunday's 5-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs .
Baker's club has won 12 of 16 on the road but is facing a Philadelphia team which has won nine of 13 at home.
The Reds, though, arrive with a comfortable division lead over second-place Pittsburgh and with Leake (5-7, 4.29 ERA) coming off his second complete game of the season.
The right-hander fired a four-hitter in Wednesday's 6-1 victory over the New York Mets . He threw 70 of his 111 pitches for strikes and set down 17 of the last 19 batters he faced.
"Awesome, awesome. He did his job," third baseman Todd Frazier said.
So have Frazier and Ryan Ludwick since Joey Votto went down with an injured left knee.
Frazier is batting .302 with seven homers and 24 RBIs since the 2010 NL MVP last played July 15, while Ludwick is hitting .343 with 12 homers and 33 RBIs during that 24-10 stretch.
Ludwick is hitless in nine at-bats against Roy Halladay (6-7, 3.80), Philadelphia's scheduled starter Monday.
It's been a rough year for Halladay, who is just starting to find his form since returning in mid-July after nearly two months on the disabled list with a strained lat. The two-time Cy Young Award winner is 2-1 with a 1.64 ERA in three August starts, striking out 20 and walking two.
"It's the best I've seen him throw in a little while," Miami manager Ozzie Guillen told the majors' official website after Halladay gave up three runs in six innings of Wednesday's 9-2 loss to the Marlins.
Halladay went 1-0 with a 1.93 ERA in two starts versus Cincinnati last season.
Phillies second baseman Chase Utley hit .156 (5 for 32) against Reds pitching in 2012, so manager Charlie Manuel might not be in a rush to put the five-time All-Star back in the lineup after giving him a rest Sunday following 30 consecutive starts.
Backup Michael Martinez went 2 for 5 with a two-run homer in Sunday's 8-0 win over Milwaukee as Philadelphia posted a second straight win following a three-game skid.
Ryan Howard , who raised his batting average from .213 to .246 by going 8 for 18 in the Brewers series, hit a team-best four homers off Reds pitching in 2011.
He is 3 for 8 with a home run versus Leake.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- With offense like this, Roy Halladay doesn't have to be his old self.
John Mayberry Jr. hit a two-run homer and Ryan Howard and Erik Kratz had solo shots to back Halladay, helping the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Cincinnati Reds 12-5 on Monday night.
Halladay (7-7) wasn't sharp, allowing five runs and 10 hits in seven innings. But the offense bailed out the two-time Cy Young Award winner.
"It's always kind of ironic when you think you're not catching breaks, we put up a bunch of runs," Halladay said. "That was one of our best offensive games of the year from the standpoint it seemed everybody was involved and it wasn't one or two guys."
Domonic Brown hit a go-ahead two-run double off Mike Leake (5-8) in a four-run fifth. Mayberry had three hits and three RBIs, Chase Utley , Howard and Kratz each drove in two and Juan Pierre had three hits and three runs.
The Phillies have won seven straight over the Reds and 12 of 13, dating to 2010. This was their first meeting this season.
"Our hitting was good, did some things right," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. "Just about everybody hit."
The NL-Central leading Reds lost for just the third time in 11 games.
The five-time defending NL East champions have won three straight, but are eight games under .500.
After the Reds took a 5-4 lead in the fifth, the Phillies answered in the bottom half.
Pierre singled and scored on Utley's RBI double. After Howard was intentionally walked, Mayberry ripped an RBI single to tie it. Brown followed with a shot down the line that scored two to chase Leake and give Philadelphia a 7-5 lead.
Leake allowed seven runs and 10 hits in 4 1-3 innings.
"The goal is to keep the lead, but they hit me well," Leake said.
Utley hit a sacrifice fly in the sixth and Mayberry connected off Jose Arredondo to extend the lead to 10-5.
"I saw the ball pretty well and always helps to get good pitches to hit," Mayberry said. "Just getting in there and getting your timing together is always going to help you."
The Reds loaded the bases in the first on three straight singles to start the game. Jay Bruce then ripped a line-drive double off the right-field wall that should've scored two. But Chris Heisey stopped after rounding third and was tagged out at the plate.
Scott Rolen 's RBI groundout made it 2-0.
Pierre hit a double, stole third and scored on Howard's two-out single to cut it to 2-1 in the bottom half.
Howard drove one way out to right to tie it at 2 in the third. Kratz went deep to left-center to make it 3-2 in the fourth.
Kratz has seven homers in 61 at-bats. The 32-year-old local boy has turned into a fan favorite in his first extended action in the big leagues after 11 seasons in the minors. Filling in for All-Star catcher Carlos Ruiz , Kratz is hitting .295 with more extra-bases (13) than singles (5).
"Kratz is doing a tremendous job," Manuel said.
Cincinnati scored three runs with two outs in the fifth on Heisey's RBI double, Bruce's RBI single and a botched rundown that allowed Phillips to score after Bruce was picked off first.
NOTES: Rolen played his 2,000th career game at third base. As usual, he was booed by Phillies fans who still haven't forgiven him for demanding a trade in 2002. ... Bruce was 3 for 3 to extend his hitting streak to nine games. He's 16 for 35 in those games. ... Jimmy Rollins snapped an 0-for-20 slump with a sixth-inning double. ... Philadelphia's Antonio Bastardo had two strikeouts in the eighth in his first appearance since Aug. 8. ... LHP Cliff Lee (2-7, 3.83) seeks his first home win this season Tuesday night against Reds RHP Homer Bailey (10-8, 4.16).
