Prediction: Milwaukee Brewers VS Philadelphia Phillies 2025-06-01

The Philadelphia Phillies are looking to bounce back from a humiliating 17-7 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, where Jesus Luzardo had a meltdown for the ages, getting ejected after allowing 12 earned runs in just 3 1/3 innings. I mean, who needs a pitching coach when you can just put a "For Sale" sign on your ERA?

On a more serious note, the Brewers are on a roll, scoring at least five runs in four of their last five games, and they're looking to extend their winning streak to six games. With Chad Patrick on the mound, who allowed just two runs over six innings in his last outing, they've got a good chance of making it happen.

The SportsLine Projection Model is simulating this game 10,000 times, and it's got the Brewers winning in 43% of those simulations, with a projected 9.0 combined runs. That makes the Over 8.5 runs look like a solid bet, especially with the Phillies' pitching staff still reeling from Luzardo's disaster start.

My best bet for this game? Take the Over 8.5 runs at -114. The Brewers are hot, and the Phillies' pitching is... well, not so much. This one's got all the makings of a high-scoring affair, so buckle up and enjoy the ride!
