The Milwaukee Brewers maintained their wild-card lead with a 7-6 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday. But the real takeaway from that game for bettors was the OVER cashing once again, which means the Brewers and Reds have topped the closing total in 10 of their past 13.
- The Brewers are 9-2 SU in their last 11 games against right-handed starting pitchers.
- The Reds are 1-6 SU in their last 7 games on the road against the Brewers.
- Ryan Braun has slashed .364/.417/.727 in his career vs Homer Bailey.
The Brew Crew will start a struggling Brandon Woodruff in this one. The 24-year-old has come back down to earth after a blistering start by allowing 13 runs in his past three starts. The righty has had issues at Miller Park, posting a 4.85 ERA in five starts compared to his 0.82 ERA in two road outings.
Homer Bailey will look to close out his season with something positive when he takes the mound for the Reds. Bailey has been dealing with injuries all season long, which limited his effectiveness and ultimately led to him posting a miserable 6.96 ERA. The 10-year veteran fared well against the Brewers earlier this month, allowing three runs in 6.0 innings of work.
