MLB Division Game of the Month. My selection is on Milwaukee over St. Louis at 2:15 pm et on Saturday.
The Cardinals evened this series at a game apiece with a 4-2 victory last night. I look for the Brewers to answer back on Saturday. Adrian Houser didn't earn a win in his most recent start but he certainly did everything that was asked of him, allowing only one earned run over six frames in an eventual extra innings loss in San Diego. Since then, the Brewers have won three of their last four games. Houser certainly enjoys pitching against the Cardinals. He has allowed just two earned urns in 30 2/3 innings of work against them going back to the start of last season. The Brewers have won three of his five career starts here in St. Louis. Matthew Liberatore will get his second big league start for the Cardinals out of necessity only. He drew a favorable matchup against the light-hitting Pirates in his first career start last week but didn't fare well, allowing four earned runs on seven hits over just 4 2/3 innings. He wasn't exactly thriving at the AAA level prior to the call-up, posting a 3.83 ERA and 1.20 WHIP in 40 innings of work. Take Milwaukee (10*).
