In this article, we will formulate a Brewers vs Athletics Prediction for this MLB game on Saturday, April 19th, at American Family Field. Let’s take a look at a Milwaukee Brewers vs Oakland Athletics pick. 

Too Little Too Late for Athletics

It was too little too late for the Athletics on Friday when they scored two runs in the top of the 9th. J.T. Ginn got the start and he wasn’t good enough going 4.2 innings giving up four hits and three runs. On Thursday the A’s scored eight ruins and they are going to need to get that offense in a big way here. 


The A’s are averaging 4.63 runs while their pitching is giving up 4.88 runs per game. The offense is ranked 9th while the pitching is ranked 25th. The pitching for this team has really let them down most of the season when they have struggled. Getting the start for the A’s will be Luis Severino who sits with an 0-3 record and an ERA of 4.01. In two of his last three starts he hasn’t played as well, but the last game against the New York Mets he went 5.2 innings giving up four hits and one run. 

Another Win for the Brewers

It was another win for the Brewers on Friday, and they will go for a series win on Saturday. Freddy Peralta played with some fire most of the game but he did end up going five innings giving up seven hits and zero runs. Christian Yellich did have a strong game finishing with two hits and three RBIs. 

The Brewers are averaging 4.84 runs while their pitching is giving up 4.95 runs per game. The pitching has been a problem, but the offense is ranked 6th, and it’s what they have leaned on when they have had success. Getting the start for the Brewers will be Chad Patrick who sits with a 1-0 record and an ERA of 1.76. In his last start against the Arizona Diamondbacks, he went 4.1 innings, giving up five hits but zero runs. 

Why the Brewers Will Beat the Athletics

  • The Brewers have won each of their last nine home games against American League opponents following a win.
  • The Athletics have lost five of their last six night games against NL Central opponents.
  • The Brewers have covered the run line each of their last six night games against AL West opponents that held a losing record.
  • The Athletics have failed to cover the run line in four of their last five night games against NL Central opponents.
  • The Athletics have trailed after 5 innings in each of their last four games as road underdogs against National League opponents.
  • The Athletics have trailed after 3 innings in six of their last seven night games against National League opponents.

Total Runs  Facts

  • Six of the Athletics’ last seven night games against National League opponents have gone OVER the total runs line.
  • Six of the last eight games between the Athletics and Brewers at American Family Field have gone UNDER the total runs line.
  • The ‘Inning 1 UNDER 0.5 runs’ market has hit in each of the Athletics’ last five games against National League opponents.
  • The ‘Inning 1 UNDER 0.5 runs’ market has hit in six of the Brewers’ last seven games as home favorites against AL West opponents.

Brewers vs Athletics Prediction 

I am not betting against Chad Patrick right now with the way he has pitched healing into this game. Patrick didn’t go as deep in his last start but he has still been dominant overall. The A’s offense is averaging 4.63 runs but Patrick hasn’t cared who he has faced, he hasn’t been giving up runs. The Brewers also get to face off against Severino who has looked awful in two of his last three starts. Milwaukee is going to cruise here. Back the Brewers on the money line.
