The Milwaukee Brewers (12-10, 3-6 Away) lost the series to the Arizona Diamondbacks on the road, but then returned home and beat the Detroit Tigers and Athletics. Now, the Brewers will spend the next three series on the road. In the latest 14-1 victory over the A's, Rhys Hoskins led the team with four RBI, while Logan Henderson got the win after allowing one run on three hits with nine strikeouts and one walk in 6.0 innings of work.

San Francisco Giants Betting Preview

The San Francisco Giants (14-8, 4-2 Home) are back home from a road trip during which they faced the Yankees, Phillies, and Angels. After defeating the Yankees, the Giants split the series with the Phillies and lost to the Angels. In the most recent 5-4 loss to the Angels, Willy Adames and Sam Huff contributed two RBI apiece, while Justin Verlander pitched for 6.0 innings in a no-decision, allowing one run on two hits with six strikeouts and two walks. Ryan Walker took the loss.

This year, the Giants average 5.05 runs per game (6th in the MLB) on a .224/.305/.395 triple-slash. When it comes to pitching, the Giants’ staff has a 3.53 ERA (6th) and 1.22 WHIP (12th). Wilmer Flores leads the Giants with a .203 batting average, six home runs, and 23 RBI this season.

Robbie Ray will take the mound for the Giants on Monday. The 33-year-old left-hander has a 3-0 record in four starts this year with a 4.19 ERA and 1.55 WHIP in 19.1 innings.

Brewers vs Giants Prediction

The teams have traded victories in the past few years, as each recorded five in the previous ten H2H duels. Milwaukee did win four of the last five H2Hs, but I am backing the Giants in this one because I don't trust Quinn Priester on the mound for the Brewers. Priester allowed just one earned run in 10.0 innings this season, but I believe it's time for him to be really tested, and the Giants are one of the higher-scoring teams in the MLB. Robbie Ray, on the other hand, didn't have the best start against the Phillies last time out, and I am backing him to bounce back in this one. The Brewers have a .235 BA against southpaws this year. Go with San Francisco.
