The Brewers are just 3 games above .500 on the road this year. They barely held on for a win against the powerhouse Rangers last night in Game One of the road series. Texas runs out Dane Dunning today. He has had a fine year for the Rangers, and hasn't faded down the stretch at all. In his last three starts he has given the Rangers innings (20+), low ERs (5 total) and K's (29). He is 6-1 at home this year. Brewers starter Peralta has been equally good lately, although he hasn't been quite as effective when pitching on the road. It is a different story on offense. The Brewers, never a strong offensive team, clocked in at .229/.663 OPS in the last two weeks. The Rangers stood 4th at .256/.802. Texas is 12-4 in August and 19-13 as a home favorite. Yesterday aside, they have been getting good results from their relievers. Given their superior offense, I'm wagering on the Rangers to bounce back and win today.
