The Pirates are coming into this game playing well in their recent games as they have won their last 2 straight as well as 3 of their last 5 games, and they have also been trending to the over in these. They have seen 10 runs total or more in each of their last 2 as well as 3 of their last 5 games, and their offense has been great in these. They have scored 20 runs in their last 2 games alone, coming off of a 12-2 win against the Brewers on Tuesday, and they have scored at least 8 runs or more in 3 of their last 5 games as well. They are going up against a Brewers team that has not been playing well recently as they have lost 4 of their last 5 games, but they have also been trending to the over in recent games and they will be hungry to bounce back here as they are still leading their division. They have seen 11+ runs total in 3 of their last 4 games and all 4 of those games saw at least 8 runs as well. Tobias Myers is starting for the Brewers in this game and he is 5-3 with a 3.52 ERA this season. He has been pitching well this year for being in his rookie season, but recently he has been allowing more runs as he has allowed 7 earned runs between his last 2 starts. The Brewers bullpen has also been allowing a lot of runs recently as well so he will not get a lot of help from them if he has another bad start, especially with the way this Pirates offense has been hitting. Martín Pérez is starting for the Pirates here and he is 1-4 with a 4.85 ERA this season. He is coming off of a good start as he only allowed 1 earned run, but prior to that he allowed 6 earned runs and has allowed at least 4 run in 4 of his last 6 starts as well. He recently came back from injury as well and has only made 2 starts since coming back, allowing 6 earned runs and 1 earned run. Even without the injury trouble, Perez has been struggling over the last 2 seasons and he has been giving up a lot of hits in his recent starts which will be trouble against a Brewers team at home that is looking to bounce back and still has a very good offense. The Brewers are going to score runs in this game as they will get to Perez and the bullpen, but the Brewers do not have a rock solid starter themselves and their bullpen has not been great either. Between these two sides, there will be enough runs in this game to push it over the total.
