The Milwaukee Brewers will play the Washington Nationals in Game 2 of their series on Tuesday night at Nationals Park in Washington, DC. Washington won the first Game of this series by a score of 5-3 on Monday night, which was a nice bounce back after not hitting the ball very well in their series with the Mets.

Pick

The Brewers lost with Corbin Burnes on the mound on Monday, so they are going to need a solid outing from Freddy Peralta here. Washington has started to sell some of their pieces at the trade deadline, but they will have one of their better pitchers on the mound in this game. Washington is starting Josiah Gray, who has allowed one earned in his last 13 innings of work. Milwaukee is starting Freddy Peralta, who has allowed 0 earned runs in two of his last three starts, but did allow six earned runs to the Braves in the other start in that span. Both of these pitchers have been solid and I think we are going to see a lower scoring game here. Give me the under.
