The Milwaukee Brewers have been on a roll, winning 9 of their last 11 games, and tonight they will open a 3-game set at Miller Park against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Phillies have struggled on the road, going 13-33, and will send Nick Pivetta to the hill tonight to try to get a rare road win. Over his last 3 starts, Pivetta is 1-1, with an ERA of 5.40, a WHIP of 1.32, and Philadelphia is 2-5 in his last 7 road starts. Pivetta is vulnerable to the long ball, surrendering 7 homers over his last 4 games, which is not good against a Brewers team that has gone yard in 24 of their last 26 games. Milwaukee will counter with Zach Davies, who has been delivering. Over his last 3 starts, Davies is 3-0, with an ERA of 2.84, and a WHIP of only 0.95. Milwaukee is 7-1 in their last 8 home games, 5-2 in Davies’ last 7 home starts and the Brewers have won 10 out of the last 14 meetings with Philadelphia. Get this one early because the number will probably climb.
