The Los Angeles Angels and Milwaukee Brewers meet Sunday in MLB action at American Family Field. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.
The Los Angeles Angels have scored 14 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 7 of their last 8 games. The Angels have won 6 of their last 9 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Mike Trout leads the Angels with 33 hits and 18 RBI, while Shohei Ohtani and Gio Urshela have combined for 59 hits and 29 RBI. Jose Suarez gets the ball, and he is 0-1 with a 10.26 ERA and 12 strikeouts this season. This will be Suarez’s first career game against the Brewers.
The Milwaukee Brewers have scored 15 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 6 of their last 10 games. The Brewers are 15-1 this season when scoring 4 or more runs. Willy Adames leads the Brewers with 24 hits and 15 RBI, while Brian Anderson and William Contreras have combined for 47 hits and 27 RBI. Colin Rea gets the ball, and he is 0-1 with a 5.17 ERA and 9 strikeouts this season. This will be Rea’s first career game against the Angels.
The Angels are 5-2 in their last 7 Sunday games and 5-15 in their last 20 interleague games. The Brewers are 20-7 in their last 27 interleague games and 18-8 in their last 26 overall. The under is 3-1-1 in Angels last 5 interleague games. The under is 3-1-1 in Brewers last 5 overall. The Angels are 1-4 in the last 5 meetings in Milwaukee and 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.
I’m not eager to get behind either of these pitchers, but I’m certainly not laying juice with Jose Suarez with how he’s looked through 16.2 innings. The Milwaukee Brewers are more than capable offensively, and they’re at home with the quick turnaround. The value is with the home team here. Give me the Brewers.
