Milwaukee has beaten the Cardinals eight times in a row dating to last season following Saturday's 5-3 win when Rhys Hoskins hit a go-ahead three-run homer in the seventh inning. It was the seventh straight loss for St. Louis, which is in last place in the NL Central and it has been outscored 45-20 during the losing streak. Miles Mikolas is 2-5 with a 6.43 ERA and a 1.48 WHIP and he is 0-4 with an 8.24 ERA in day games this season. The Brewers already have faced him once this year and scored five runs on nine hits in 4 2/3 innings. Bryse Wilson has allowed only one run on five hits his past two outings in 12 innings pitched without much run support. However, look for Milwaukee to score enough against Mikolas and the Cardinals. Take the Brewers.

Milwaukee at St. Louis
LOSS
It's the third consecutive road game for Milwaukee, as well as their ninth road game over the last 12 contests. The Brewers won yesterday, 12-5, but NL teams averaging 5.0 runs per game after scoring 8 or more runs are 21-43 against a team with a bullpen ERA of 3.75 or lower. St. Louis plays its third straight home game with a bullpen that is 11th in ERA (3.64). They also have ace Sonny Gray going, who has not allowed a run or a walk in two starts (11 innings). The Cardinals are 224-159 after three or more straight losses, plus 65-31 at home after batting .200 or less over a five-game span. Play the St. Louis Cardinals.
