Milwaukee lost a pitching duel on Friday night when Adrian Houser pitched six scoreless innings, but the Rays came through with a run in the eighth to win it 1-0. The Brewers have Eric Lauer going today and he gave up two runs on two hits in 5 1/3 innings in a 9-6 victory over Kansas City on Sunday. Lauer has done his best work on the road this year with a 3-1 record and 1.90 ERA and .214 opponent batting average. Lauer also is 3-0 with a .177 OBA in day games and this game has a late afternoon start. Zach Eflin has been shaky his past two starts for Tampa Bay giving up four runs on seven hits in six innings each time. Milwaukee's bullpen has been decent with 10 saves and a 1.29 WHIP this season and the Brewers still have won seven of the past nine meetings and they are 10-3 in interleague road games. Take the Brewers as a Max Play.
