Holding an 8-2 record against the spread in their last 10 games, the Milwaukee Brewers will try to stay hot on the spread market as they attempt to overcome a -1.5-run handicap in Sunday’s series finale against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park.

The Brewers pushed their winning streak to 14 games behind a clutch three-run homer by Andruw Monastario at the top of the 11th inning. Relief pitcher Nick Mears also displayed composure to earn the final outs, squashing a late rally from the Reds, who managed to pull within one, 5-6, after Santiago Espinal and Noelvi Marte each drove in runs at the bottom of the 11th.

The 78-44 Brewers now own a 9-game cushion on the 69-43 Chicago Cubs in the NL Central standings. Cincinnati, which sits in third in the division with a 64-60 record, has dropped its last three games against the Brewers and five of its last six meetings.

Our Milwaukee Brewers vs Cincinnati Reds Prediction

We have reached the point where we are starting to ask if the Brewers will ever lose another game this season.

The Brewers are set to win the series with the Reds on Sunday, unleashing their prolific offense that generates 10.0 runs per game over their last five games. Milwaukee will also have a terrific pitcher starting in Game 3 as Jose Quintana takes his stellar 4-1 record (3.86 ERA) in his last five meetings into his first face-off with Cincinnati this year.

Cincinnati will try to tame the Brewers’ monster offense by starting All-Star hurler Andrew Abbott (2-3, 2.91 ERA in his last five). But as we have learned in the first two games of this series, the Reds' offense just doesn't stand a chance against the Brewers' well-oiled run machine.

Our betting prediction for the Milwaukee Brewers vs. the Cincinnati Reds: the Brewers -1.5 Runs.

Prediction:

 

The Brewers -1.5 Runs
