St. Louis Cardinals vs Milwaukee Brewers Pick
Mathews gives St. Louis a chance to keep the game close early. Milwaukee, however, has been the much stronger club throughout the season and has reached the 100-win mark. The Brewers also get the advantage of playing at American Family Field. May needs to limit damage and avoid putting Milwaukee into an early hole, but the Brewers' offense and overall depth should provide enough support. Expect St. Louis to hang around before Milwaukee eventually breaks through during the middle or later innings.
