Milwaukee Brewers vs San Francisco Giants Prediction

I’m on the Brewers here. I get the allure of plus money with the Giants after San Francisco came out on top on Tuesday, but the Brewers have been demolishing left-handed pitching as of late, and Kyle Harrison just is not one of my guys that I enjoy backing. Freddy Peralta has put together a solid campaign and the Giants tend to hit lefties better than they hit righties so this could be a good spot for Peralta to put together another strong outing. Give me the Brew Crew at home in this one.
