Milwaukee picked up a 5-2 road win Saturday at St. Louis to improve to 79-69 overall and 36-38 on the road.

Edman homers in loss
St. Louis fell by a count of 5-2 at home Saturday against Milwaukee to drop to 83-65 overall and 47-27 at home. Tommy Edman paced the Cardinals offense as he was 2-for-4 with a solo home run.

MLB Betting Trends
Milwaukee
The Brewers are 8-1 in their last nine games. Milwaukee is 4-1 in its last five games versus the NL Central.
St. Louis
The Cardinals are 4-1 in the last five Wacha home starts. St. Louis is 25-10 in its last 35 games overall.
Prediction:
Don't get it confused. St. Louis is still dominant at home and I don't expect it to lose this series. Wacha has been pitching better as of late and the Brewers are without one of the best hitters in baseball in Christian Yelich. Anderson isn't likely to be flawless and I think the Cardinals get to him enough to win the series finale.
