The PLAY: Total Over 9.0 (-118) A Civale (RHP), B Singer (RHP) Must Start
In winning seven straight games, the Brewers have scored 48 runs, an average of nearly seven per game. They scored at least five runs in six of the seven games. The Reds didn't hit too well over the weekend. However, they've still scored at least six runs in six of their last nine games. The starting pitching matchup favors another relatively high-scoring game. Though he was better last time out, Singer had a poor 6.39 ERA and 1.66 WHIP in five May starts. Still working his way back from injury, Civale has a 6.00 ERA in his three starts this season. Given that both bullpens have also been inconsistent, I see this one reaching double-digits.
