Giants vs Brewers Prediction
The Brewers won six of the previous ten H2H encounters, including five of the last seven. Even though the Giants are 16-8 Over/Under this season, I am going with a low-scoring affair on Wednesday because of the pitching matchup. Freddy Peralta and Logan Webb have been the best starters of these respective teams, and I doubt they will surrender more than two runs apiece in quality starts. Peralta allowed a .200 BA in 25 at-bats against the Giants, while Webb allowed a .167 BA in 30 at-bats against the Brewers. Go with Under.
