The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to stay on top of the NL Central and pick up another win over the Pittsburgh Pirates tonight. It will be the 2nd game of their 3-game series, and this is the 1st series of their 3-city road trip.
In game one, the Brewers used a 4-run 6th inning to take a commanding 5-0 lead that they would never relinquish. Jacob Misiorowski pitched 5 innings of scoreless work. He finished with 7 strikeouts and allowed just 5 hits. Luis Lara and Joey Ortiz combined to go 4-for-7 with 2 doubles and 4 RBIs in the 5-1 Milwaukee win.
Pittsburgh had been off to a decent start this month. They won 7 of their 1st 9 games, but have since lost 3 of their last 4. However, they have been keeping the scoring to a minimum and have relied on their pitching to keep them in the games. They are hoping that Jared Jones can do that tonight as he takes the start for the Pirates. He will likely need to be tough as the run support is not likely to be much.
Logan Henderson will start for Milwaukee and is 10-3 on the year. His 2.34 ERA is one of the top in the league, and he is coming off 5 shutout innings in his last start, which came against the Cubs.

Our Pittsburgh Pirates vs Milwaukee Brewers Prediction
Both teams rank in the top 5 in combined batting average and total runs scored this season. However, the total is just 7.5 for this matchup. We believe it is low because both starting pitchers should have strong outings. Jones comes into this start having gone 13 innings of shutout work. Henderson has only allowed 5 total runs in his last 35 innings of work. We like both pitchers and their bullpens to keep this one from going over the total.
Our prediction for Pittsburgh Pirates vs Milwaukee Brewers: Under 7.5
