The Athletics have struggled in recent matchups against Milwaukee, going 1-2 in their last three meetings.

Athletics Set to Dominate Brewers with Stellar Starting Pitcher on the Mound

The Oakland Athletics will have their most proficient starting pitcher on the mound when they face the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday. Springer has an impressive record, having won three out of his four starts this season while consistently pitching over five innings each game. With 20 strikeouts in 20 innings of work, he has effectively minimized balls in play. He will be facing off against the Brewers' Alexander, who has struggled when playing at home in the past two seasons, allowing 15 home runs in just 12 home appearances last year and maintaining an ERA over six. With a track record of issuing 10 walks in just over 16 innings this season, the Athletics are expected to capitalize on their offensive opportunities. Therefore, it is recommended to bet on the Athletics to secure a victory in this series.
