The Milwaukee Brewers are battling the Red Sox in the second game of their series here at home. After winning last night’s game, the Brewers turn to Aaron Civale to keep the momentum going.
Civale only recently returned from a stint on the injured list with a rather unspectacular outing. Over four innings, he gave up two runs to the Pittsburgh Pirates. As he builds up from this return, the Red Sox will prove a much more difficult test.
For Boston, they have Richard Fitts on the mound. It’s his second season in the big leagues. Across 17 innings this season, the righty has a 3.18 ERA. While he only has 13 strikeouts, he’s done a good job of limiting opponents to a .226 batting average.
The Brewers lineup starts with Brice Turang up top. In the infield, he’ll be joined by Rhys Hoskins, Joey Ortiz, and Caleb Durbin. William Contreras sets up behind the plate with Christian Yelich at designated hitter.
In the outfield, Jackson Chourio will take centerfield with Isaac Collins and Sal Frelick.
First pitch is at 6:40 p.m. on FanDuel Sports Wisconsin and the Brewers Radio Network.
