7/25: Reds @ Brewers

Game Information:

Cincinnati Reds @ Milwaukee Brewers

American Family Field - Milwaukee, WI

First Pitch: 7:10 CDT

Milwaukee Brewers' Potent Offense:
The Brewers' bats have been swinging with authority! Facing the left-handed pitcher Andrew Abbott, their lineup looks eager to jump on the opportunity. William Contreras has been on fire, boasting an impressive 0.500 AVG and 1.556 OPS, while Willy Adames and Joey Wiemer have also been productive with 0.400 and 0.333 AVGs, respectively. These hitters are hungry for runs, and Abbott's 8% walk rate could play into their favor.

Corbin Burnes: A Dominant Force
The Brewers' ace, Corbin Burnes, will take the mound, and he's been in prime form! With a remarkable K-rate of 38%, Burnes has been sending batters back to the dugout. His ability to limit the Reds to just a 0.211 SLG and a 0.458 OPS speaks volumes about his prowess. The Reds' hitters seem to be struggling against him, with a collective 0.132 AVG and a 38% K-rate, indicating a possible early-game advantage for the Brewers.

Recommended Play: Given the stacked Brewers top of the order against Abbott, and the Reds abysmal numbers against Burnes, the recommended play for this game is:

Brewers score first -105

Result:

Loss : Reds scored first
