MILWAUKEE (Interstat) — The Milwaukee Brewers host the Colorado Rockies on Sunday afternoon at American Family Field, where the National League Central leaders aim to bounce back after splitting the first two games of the series. Milwaukee (64-39) holds the best record in the National League, while Colorado (42-63) sits last in the NL West. The Brewers won Saturday 3-2 in a tight contest, answering Colorado’s 5-2 victory Friday. Rookie right-hander Jacob Misiorowski (10-4) is the probable starter for the Rockies, providing a rare bright spot in an otherwise difficult season. The 24-year-old has been Colorado’s most consistent pitcher, though his recent starts have not been provided. He faces a Milwaukee lineup that has shown power throughout the season. The Brewers are expected to counter with left-hander Shane Drohan, who took the loss Friday despite pitching six innings. Drohan allowed five earned runs on six hits with six strikeouts in that outing. He has a 4-2 record in his past five decisions, with a 2.88 ERA over his last three starts covering 18 innings. Colorado’s player to watch is right-hander Tomoyuki Sugano, who earned the win Friday with 5⅓ innings of two-run ball. Sugano has won his past two starts, also beating Cincinnati on July 18. He is a key piece in a Rockies rotation that has struggled overall. Milwaukee’s player to watch is Drohan, who has been effective despite the blip Friday. He held Miami to three runs in a win July 18 and allowed one run over six innings against St. Louis on July 6. He will need to replicate that form against a Rockies lineup that has been inconsistent. The head-to-head series is 2-1 in favor of Milwaukee when including a three-game sweep in Colorado in early June. The Brewers outscored the Rockies 28-12 in that series. Game-time temperature is forecast at 79 degrees with cloud cover. The Interstat game simulator projects a 5-4 Milwaukee win. The Brewers are installed as a pregame favorite with a spread of minus-1.5. The over/under is 7.5 runs. The Rockies open a three-game series at San Diego on Tuesday. The Brewers travel to San Francisco for a three-game set starting Monday.
