Despite Zach Davies excellent numbers this season the Brewers are just 1-9 in his last 10 starts against teams with a winning record and 1-6 on the road in that situation. Zach Davies comes in 4-0 with a 1.54 ERA on the year 31 strike outs and 15 walks those strike out numbers are light so Davies relys on location to get hitters out.
Brewers dropped game one of this series but have been red hot since then eating the Phillies for dinner as their bullpen has come up huge so far especially compared the Phillies weak pen. Look for the Phillies to be ultra motivated to get it done at home Thursday.
