Milwaukee's biggest strength is its pitching. The Brewers own the best ERA, the lower WHIP, the fewest opponent hits allowed, and an outstanding .222 opponent batting average. Those numbers have been a major factor in their strong record.
Athletics Searching for Consistency
The Athletics enter the contest at 30-34 overall and 11-17 at home. They have gone 2-3 over their last five games, recently defeating Chicago twice before suffering three consecutive losses.
The Athletics are batting .244 with 268 runs scored and 529 hits. They have hit 70 home runs while posting a .325 on-base percentage and a .392 slugging percentage. Their pitching staff carries a 4.61 ERA, a 1.42 WHIP, 249 walks, 516 strikeouts, and a .256 opponent batting average.
The Athletics hold an advantage in home run production, but their pitching numbers trail Milwaukee across nearly every category. That has made it difficult for them to consistently compete against stronger clubs.
