This is a 10* FIRST FIVE INNING BLOWOUT on the Brewers.

I like the way this one sets up for a FIRST FIVE innings play on Freddy Peralta (1-0, 0.00 ERA) and the home side. That said, I also really like Milwaukee for the entire game as well if you don't have access to FIRST FIVE innings picks.

The Cardinals got a much-needed win last night. I was on St. Louis. But I expect an immediate step back here.

Peralta goes up against Jake Woodford (0-1, 12.46.)

Note that Milwaukee's pen has thrown 21 straight scoreless frames and has conceded just three runs all year, the fewest in MLB. And so, if you can't find a FIRST FIVE line, that's why I also really like Milwaukee for the FULL GAME as well.

Peralta gave up two hits over six scoreless in a win over the Mets on Monday. Woodford allowed six runs over four innings (including three homers), in an 8-4 loss to the Braves on Monday.

This is the final game before the Brewers embark on a ten-game road trip, and I expect them to make the most of it.

The play is MILWAUKEE.

Good luck, NP
