The Giants Can Win If…

The San Francisco Giants recently dominated the Milwaukee Brewers with a 7-1 victory. Logan Webb pitched six strong innings, allowing just one run. Casey Schmitt was a standout, going 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBIs.

The Giants’ pitching staff ranks sixth in ERA at 3.76. They have given up the fewest home runs in the league with 113. With Robbie Ray starting, who holds a 2.85 ERA, the Giants have a solid chance on the mound.

Offensively, Rafael Devers is a key player with 25 home runs and 83 RBIs this season. Willy Adames and Matt Chapman add power with 22 and 16 home runs, respectively. This combination of strong pitching and capable hitters gives the Giants a good shot at winning the game.

The Brewers Can Win If…

The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to bounce back after a recent 7-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants. Freddy Peralta pitched well, allowing only two hits and no runs over five innings. Despite the loss, Christian Yelich continued to hit well, going 2-for-4 with two singles.

The Brewers have strong hitting stats this season. They rank third in batting average at .257 and second in on-base percentage at .330. Their ability to get on base and score runs makes them a tough team to beat.

Brice Turang has been a key player for the Brewers. He leads the team in batting average at .286 and has 14 home runs. With players like Turang and Yelich performing well, the Brewers have the potential to win any game.

The Lean

The Giants are favored with a moneyline of -132. They have a strong pitching staff with the 6th best ERA in the league. The Brewers have a slightly better batting average, but the Giants’ pitching could be the difference. My model projects the Giants to win with a score of 5-4.

The total for the game is set at 9.5 runs. Both teams have solid pitching, with the Brewers ranking 3rd in ERA. However, their offenses are capable of scoring. My model projects a total of 9 runs. Therefore, I recommend taking the under at 9.5 (-112).

Brewers aim to bounce back after tough loss

The Milwaukee Brewers have been one of baseball’s most consistent teams this season, but Saturday night was a reminder that even the best can stumble. Their seven-game home winning streak came to an end with a 7-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants, setting up a decisive rubber match on Sunday afternoon at American Family Field.

Milwaukee’s offense couldn’t deliver in key moments, going 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position. Freddy Peralta gave the Brewers a chance with five scoreless innings, but defensive miscues and bullpen struggles turned the sixth and seventh innings into a disaster.

Manager Pat Murphy emphasized after the game that while health and roster depth factored into the lineup decisions, the team was still playing to win. Resting Andrew Vaughn and being without infielders Brice Turang and Joey Ortiz left the Brewers shorthanded, but Murphy noted that “you have to use the whole roster” over the grind of a long season.

Giants stop skid, welcome Chapman back

For San Francisco, Saturday’s victory snapped a four-game losing streak and provided a much-needed boost after a rough stretch in the standings. Casey Schmitt delivered the big swing with a home run and four RBIs, while Logan Webb kept the Brewers’ bats quiet over six innings.

The Giants also got a lift from the return of third baseman Matt Chapman, who had missed 10 days with hand inflammation. His presence adds veteran stability to a lineup that’s struggled to find consistency in August.

Even with the win, San Francisco has dropped 11 of its past 14 games and sits 7.5 games out of the final NL wild-card spot, currently held by the New York Mets. For the Giants, every game feels like must-win territory from here on out.

Robbie Ray takes mound in series finale

San Francisco will hand the ball to Robbie Ray in Sunday’s finale. The veteran left-hander has been sharp lately, carrying a 2.45 ERA over his last four starts while striking out 24 in 25 2/3 innings. In his last outing against the San Diego Padres, Ray allowed three unearned runs across 6 2/3 innings in a 4-3 Giants win.

Ray has historically pitched well against Milwaukee, posting a 3-1 record and 2.15 ERA in five career starts. He faced the Brewers earlier this season on April 21, when he allowed two runs over five innings in a no-decision.

Milwaukee, meanwhile, had not named a starter as of Sunday morning. The Brewers’ rotation depth has been tested by injuries, but their bullpen will be ready if needed.

What’s at stake

The Brewers may have the division lead in hand, but avoiding a home series loss is critical for maintaining momentum heading into September. With Turang and Ortiz sidelined, Milwaukee needs contributions from across the roster to keep its offense steady.

For the Giants, this series finale carries even more urgency. Their postseason hopes are hanging by a thread, and behind a strong start from Ray, they’ll try to build on Saturday’s win to stay within striking distance of the NL wild-card race.
