They have scored four or more runs in every single game since <a href=\"https:\/\/go.redirectingat.com?id=66960X1516590&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mlb.com%2Fbrewers%2Fschedule%2F2025-06&amp;referrer=sbnation.com&amp;sref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.brewcrewball.com%2F2025%2F6%2F27%2F24457469%2Fgame-thread-82-milwaukee-brewers-45-36-vs-colorado-rockies-18-63\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" has-subtag=\"true\" data-cdata=\"{\" rewritten_url=\"\">June 17th.<\/a> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brewcrewball.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Brewers<\/a> are now nine games over .500 and just three games back of the Cubs in the NL Central.<\/p>\n<p id=\"RR0FxB\">Jose Quintana will get the ball for the Crew today. Quintana\u2019s ERA is a sparkling 2.98 through ten starts as a Brewer. The veteran left-hander has a surprisingly high ERA (5.40) in 10 career appearances against Colorado. However, this Rockies team has the worst record in the league by a good margin, so Quintana should be able to put together another solid start.<\/p>\n<p id=\"kWs4pt\">Colorado will tab right-hander Kyle Freeland. Freeland, a former first round draft pick, hasn\u2019t had an ERA under 4 since 2018. His stats don\u2019t look great this year either (5.13 ERA, 1.53 WHIP), but \u2014 as with all Rockies pitchers \u2014 some of that might be a result of pitching half of his games at Coors Field. Freeland\u2019s 3.63 FIP would actually be the best of his entire career. In his last start against Milwaukee, back in April, he gave up five runs in 6 1\u20443 innings. <\/p>\n<p id=\"3V8Quy\">As for the lineup, not a ton to write home about. Sal Frelick, Jackson Chourio, and Christian Yelich make up the top of the order again today. They\u2019re followed by William Contreras (who got the day off Wednesday), the red-hot Isaac Collins, and Rhys Hoskins. Brice Turang slides down to the seven-spot, followed by Caleb Durbin and Joey Ortiz. Turang, Durbin, and Ortiz are all hitting over .350 in the last seven games. <\/p>\n<p id=\"kEy7Dm\">Today\u2019s game will be broadcast live on FanDuel Sports Wisconsin and the Brewers Radio Network. First pitch is slated for 7:10 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Milwaukee comes into today\u2019s series opener against the Rockies having won six of their last seven games.
