Milwaukee at Cincinnati

The Cincinnati Reds remain quite viable in both the wildcard and NL Central races. They are 3.5 games out in the Central, but are chasing two teams ahead of them. They otherwise own a seven game cushion for the second wildcard spot. The Reds have been pedestrian over their last eight games where they are just 4-4, despite being the favorite in all of them. They are also just 3-5 to a run line of -1.5 in those eight games. Milwaukee certainly has not quit as they are 9-7 in their last 16 games and took the opener here last night 6-4. Wily Peralta has been pitching very well with a 2.88 ERA over his last 11 starts for the Brewers. Milwaukee is playing with confidence, and Peralta has held a lot of teams in check over his last 11 starts. Milwaukee can stay in this one, so play them on the runline.
