Milwaukee snapped its three-game skid with a 7-0 win over the Cubs on Saturday as Christian Yelich went four-for-five with a three-run homer. Eric Lauer is on the mound for the Brewers today, and he is 8-5 after pitching five scoreless innings on five hits in a 4-0 victory over the Dodgers on Monday. Lauer has allowed more than three earned runs just once in his last 10 starts, and he has a 2.64 ERA at home this season. He has faced Chicago three times this year and given up four earned runs in 17 innings. The Milwaukee bullpen is second in the Majors with 42 saves. Adrian Sampson didn't last four innings on Tuesday when he allowed five runs on eight hits in a 13-3 loss to the Cardinals. Also, Milwaukee has won eight of its past 10 home games versus right-handed starters, and the Cubs are 6-13 against lefty starters. Take the Brewers.
