The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to keep their four-game winning streak alive and secure a series win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday night.<\/p>\n
The Crew took care of business on Friday with Logan Henderson on the mound, and now they\u2019ll try to do it again with another young starter in Robert Gasser. Gasser is making his second start of the season with the big league club. He last pitched against the Twins and allowed two earned runs over four innings.<\/p>\n
On the mound for the Dodgers is right-hander Roki Sasaki. Sasaki has a 5.09 ERA on the season. He\u2019s a talented pitcher, but very young and still has a lot of development ahead of him. He\u2019s likely a starter long-term, but spent time in the Dodgers\u2019 bullpen last season, primarily in the playoffs. Sasaki has been exclusively starting this season and is coming off his best start yet, going seven innings and allowing just one run against the Angels.<\/p>\n
William Contreras is getting a scheduled day off today, according to Pat Murphy. He homered in Friday night\u2019s win and has been on a hot streak at the plate. Andrew Vaughn jumps into the three-hole in the order with Gary S\u00e1nchez batting fifth and catching. Garrett Mitchell is out of the lineup once again, as Murphy is giving him an extra day to make sure he\u2019s recovered from the sore back that he\u2019s been dealing with. Mitchell is available to pinch-hit later in the game if needed.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Dodgers will continue to roll out their trio of future Hall of Famers atop their lineup with Ohtani, Betts, and Freeman. Kyle Tucker drops to sixth in the lineup.<\/p>\n
This is going to be a big test for Robert Gasser as he tries to prove he should stay in this rotation.<\/p>\n
First pitch is at 6:15 p.m., and this one will be nationally televised on FOX.
