Milwaukee Brewers Team Preview

The Milwaukee Brewers have gotten off to one of the best starts in the National League as they enter this game with a record of 9-3 and are on a three-game winning streak following Friday’s 11-1 win on the road against the Baltimore Orioles in Game 1 of the series which including a three-run home run hit by Willy Adames in the 5th inning that also scored William Contreras and Blake Perkins. 

The Brewers have won by an average margin of 6.33 runs per game during their current three-game winning streak and are allowing an average of 2.67 runs per game over that stretch. 

The Milwaukee Brewers have won eight of the previous ten games in the series and have won by an average margin of 3.2 runs per game in those matchups. The Brewers will look to extend their winning streak to three games when they travel to face the Baltimore Orioles for Game 2 of the series.

Baltimore Orioles Team Preview

The Baltimore Orioles are projected to be one of the top teams in the American League this season and have won three of their first four series to start the 2024 MLB season with a 2-1 series win at home against the Los Angeles Angels, a 2-1 series win at home against the Kansas City Royals, and a 3-0 series sweep on the road against the Boston Red Sox with the lone series loss coming on the road against the Pittsburgh Pirates. 

However, they suffered their worst loss this season at home in Game 1 of the series against the Milwaukee Brewers by a score of 1-11. Losing against the Milwaukee Brewers isn’t anything new for the Baltimore Orioles as Baltimore has lost eight of the previous ten games in the series and has lost by an average margin of 3.2 runs per game over the last ten and 5 runs per game over the previous three meetings. 

The loss against the Brewers on Friday also ended their three-game winning streak. Baltimore will look to even up the regular season series 1-1 when they host the Milwaukee Brewers for Game 2 of the regular season series on Saturday afternoon.
