THE PLAY: Total Over 8.5 (-103) L Severino (RHP), C Patrick (RHP) Must Start
The Brewers host the Athletics for the 2nd game of their 3-game set. The Athletics start Luis Severino who has returned back to his last season with the Yankees form. He's 0-3 with a 4.01 ERA. Now 3 of his 4 starts have come at home in Sacramento and he was effective in his lone road start, but we don't need the Brewers to do too much against him here. If they get to 3 runs against Severino, they should be able to get more off the A's bullpen which is bottom 10 in ERA and bottom 5 in WHIP. Chad Patrick starts for Milwaukee. Despite his low ERA, he's been lucky because he's walked 9 batters in 15.1 innings. The Athletics actually score more on the road than they do at home. These teams only scored 8 last night and I expect more runs coming today.
