<p>The <strong>Cardinals vs. Brewers</strong> <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/mlb" target='_blank' rel="noopener">MLB</a> </span>game is a contest of significance, with both teams eager for victory. The Cardinals, riding on a good run, need to maintain momentum. The matchup between <strong>Jack</strong> <strong>Flaherty</strong> for the Cardinals and <strong>Freddy</strong> <strong>Peralta</strong> for Milwaukee, with a <strong>total</strong> set at <strong>8</strong>, promises intrigue.</p>
<p>Flaherty&#8217;s recent form raises eyebrows. Over the past month, he&#8217;s been struggling with a high xFIP of nearly <strong>5</strong>. <strong>Left-handed batters</strong> have been particularly troublesome for him, with a <strong>.504 weighted on-base percentage (wOBA)</strong> over<strong> 57 plate appearances</strong> in the last 30 days. <strong>Right-handed hitters</strong> have had a field day, too, with a wOBA of <strong>.352</strong>.</p>
<p>On the other hand, the Brewers&#8217; lineup poses a conundrum. Only two players, <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Yelich</strong> and <strong>Rowdy Tellez</strong>, have above-average<strong> wOBA</strong>, <strong>.370</strong> and <strong>.389,</strong> respectively. The rest of the lineup has been subpar, leaving the team in a predicament against a struggling pitcher.</p>
<p>St. Louis hopes to ride on the wave of their batting success. They have an impressive record of <strong>12-6-1</strong> to the over this year in St. Louis. Their key hitters, <strong>Nolan</strong> <strong>Arenado</strong> and <strong>Paul</strong> <strong>Goldschmidt</strong>, have a strong career record against Peralta, each going <strong>7 of 19</strong> with a combined <strong>five home runs</strong>. If these big bats continue their form, they could potentially tip the scale in favor of the Cardinals.</p>
<p>The Cardinals vs. Brewers game presents an intriguing battle between a struggling pitcher and a predominantly underperforming lineup. With the Cardinals&#8217; batting prowess on their side, it will be interesting to see if they can outscore the Brewers.</p>
