Milwaukee Brewers vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction

I’m backing the Dodgers here. I get the case to be made for Milwaukee with Misiorowski going, but he’s been less effective on the road in terms of winning games and he an have a good start, but the Brewers have been conservative with his innings and the Dodgers could get to the Brewers bullpen. Wrobleski has been solid and I think the Dodgers hold on to get the win here.
