Brewers vs Reds Prediction

Cincinnati comes into this matchup after losing the first two games in this series and they have scored a total of one run in those two losses. The Reds are 19-21 at home this year, while the Brewers are 23-14 on the road. Milwaukee has won three games in a row and they have allowed three runs or fewer in three of their last five. The Brewers are starting Drohan, who has allowed 1, 4, 3, and 2 earned runs in his last four starts, while Lowder has allowed 3+ earned runs in three of his last five outings. I don’t trust either starter in this game, but I will side with the Brewers, as Cincinnati has lost four of Lowder’s last five starts.
