San Diego at Milwaukee

The Milwaukee Brewers were at the top of MLB a year ago with 57 home wins, but things have changed here. This is a struggling team that is five games below .500 on the season. Their huge home-field advantage from a year ago has vanished as they are two games below .500 on the season. The Padres’ offense is not very gifted, but for now they are swinging the bats much better. They had managed just 5 runs in a game 11 times through their first 49 games, but have gotten things going with five of their last nine producing 5 runs or more. Edinson Volquez has pitched to a 3.42 ERA for the Padres, so they certainly should stay in striking distance here. Play on San Diego.
