Milwaukee Brewers vs San Francisco Giants Prediction 

Milwaukee comes into this matchup cruising to another NL Central crown, as they are ten games up on the Cardinals in second place. The Brewers are 38-24 at home this year, while the Giants are 28-38 on the road. San Francisco has dropped some games they should have won recently, which has put them 5.5 games out of a wild card spot. This should be a very good pitching matchup, as both starters have been lights out in their last five starts. Logan Webb has been one of the hottest pitchers in the MLB over the last few weeks and I think he is going to lead the Giants to a big win in game one. Take San Francisco here.
