Rogers' 10* Thursday Afternoon THROWDOWN - 70-47-2 Run!
(MLB) Arizona vs. Milwaukee,
Money Line: -138.00 Milwaukee (Home)
Result: Win
The Arizona Diamondbacks picked up a rare win on Wednesday when they defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 8-1. They've still lost six of their last eight games and 19 of their past 25, and I think the Brew Crew will deal them another defeat in the series-finale of a four-game set today.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - The D'Backs hand the ball to Robbie Ray (5-9 , 4.53 ERA) who is 1-4 with a 4.72 ERA in his past six starts. He surrendered six runs (three earned) on six hits in five innings at Cincinnati his last outing and the left-hander is 2-5 on the road this season. The Brewers counter with Zack Davies (7-4 , 3.64 ERA) who has allowed only a total of three runs on 16 hits in 20 innings in his last three starts combined.

2. Road Woes - The D'Backs were one of the best road teams in baseball not too long ago, but they've lost nine of their past 11 on the road and six of their last eight when coming up against a right-handed starter.

3. X-Factor - Ryan Braun had reached base safely in 11 straight contests before going 0-for-3 in yesterday's matchup. I like his chances of making up for it with a big performance today.

Selection: This is a play on the Milwaukee Brewers (10*)
