Don't look now byt the Cubs have won eight of eleven games. They'll face Tomo Ohka who is 3-2 on the season but comes off a game in which he gave up 6 earned runs in six innings against the Rockies. Carlos Marmol has had a rough season so far but his last start against the Brewers was a beauty - allowing one run and three hits in 6 and 1/3 innings back in late June. Milwaukee is just 13-26 vs. losing teams including 2-9 vs. teams at 46% or worse this season. Home favorites up to -150 coming off 2 straight road losses vs. a division rival, starting a well rested pitcher who is working on 5 or 6 days rest are just 19-42 (31%)over the past ten years. Chicago has the bullpen advantage and Milwaukee is scoring just 2.4 runs per game over their last seven games. Live dog here.
