Logan Webb gets the nod Sunday for the Giants, holding an 8-3 record and a 2.82 ERA. Webb has been excellent in his last seven outings, sporting a 1.38 ERA over that span. He'll be up against a Brewers lineup that ranks 13th in runs per game despite having the fourth-most homers in the MLB.
Webb has only surrendered two dingers in his previous eight outings, so he should continue to look to keep the ball on the ground on Sunday. He also racked up eight punchouts in his last outing versus the Arizona Diamondbacks. Expect the Giants' righty to get some Ks against a Milwaukee team that strikes out a lot.
Aaron Ashby gets the ball Sunday for the Brewers, carrying a 2-6 record and a 4.37 ERA. Ashby has had an okay year for Milwaukee, but the bad news for him is that the Giants are great at hitting lefties. San Francisco averages 5.5 runs per nine versus southpaws, and they're 7-0 in their last seven home games against left-handers.
The Brewers have struggled to give Ashby run support all year long. As a result, they've dropped four in a row when Ashby has started on the road. Look for a Giants offense that ranks third in runs per game to produce at the plate on Sunday.
