The Milwaukee Brewers face the New York Mets in a crucial matchup as both teams vie for playoff positioning. The Brewers, currently riding a four-game winning streak on the road, boast a solid offense that ranks ninth in runs scored, while their pitching staff holds a respectable 12th best ERA. In contrast, the Mets are struggling, having lost 13 of their last 16 games despite leading the Wild Card standings. Injuries have plagued their rotation, contributing to their recent woes.

Freddy Peralta will take the mound for the Brewers, bringing an impressive 2.90 ERA and a recent game where he struck out eight batters. On the other side, Clay Holmes will pitch for the Mets, who has maintained a similarly impressive ERA of 2.97. With both teams needing a win, expect a tightly contested game with critical playoff implications.
