The San Franciso Giants will have their work cut out for them tonight when they travel to American Family Field to open a 4-game set with the NL Central-leading Milwaukee Brewers. Milwaukee has been clicking, winning 5 of their last 6. They are 35-21 overall and 19-11 in home games. The expected starter for Milwaukee is lefty Shane Drohan and he has good numbers, at 2-1 with an ERA of only 2.63 and a 1.10 WHIP. The 23-26 Giants sit in the fourth spot in the NL West, have just 1 win in their last 6 tries, and have been clunkers on the road at 11-20. They are expected to send Landen Roupp to the hill. He is 5-5 with a respectable ERA of 3.30 and a 1.18 WHIP. The Giants do not score runs, averaging only 3.9 per game. The Brewers average just under 5 per game and have one of the lowest team ERAs in the majors at 3.17. The side to consider here is Milwaukee.
