Milwaukee Brewers vs Cincinnati Reds Prediction
I’ll try the Brewers here. We should have a fun starter matchup, though. Myers is 0-2 in his last three appearances but he hasn’t played badly. In that span he’s got just four earned runs in 14.1 innings of work. As for Martinez, he’s posted just one earned in his last 10.0 innings, going 2-0 in those three appearances.
On Friday the Brewers got a couple of big homers from Brice Turang and Willy Adames, two swings that totaled five RBI. The offense was very well-rounded; everybody got on base and also had a run or an RBI. Milwaukee got quieter in the late innings, but it was still a nice effort. I like them to keep it up in Game two.
