This looks like a tough call on the Brewers as a road favorite with their 6-15 mark on the road through 21 games. Not until you consider the fact that half of that win total has come with Shaun Marcum on the mound. Marcum off to an alluring start with a stellar 2.72 ERA fanning more than one per inning, as his stuff has translated well to the NL, and he is healthy. Jon Garland has pitched reasonably well for the troubled Dodgers, who have failed to reach the 2-run mark in nine games already this season, and in neither of their last two. The Brewers own the momentum here at 5-1 over their last six, and have seen four of Marcum's five road starts fail to get to the total. The Dodgers’ bats are missing against right-handers at 2-8 in their last 10 games, which has the UNDER also cashing at 8-1 in the last nine. This one goes to Milwaukee and the UNDER.
