Date/Time: June 7, 2025, 7:35 PM EST
Location: American Family Field
Starting Pitchers:
- Padres: Stephen Kolek (RHP)
- Brewers: Jose Quintana (LHP)
Moneyline Odds:
- Padres: -103
- Brewers: -119
Analysis:
The Padres look to take a 2-0 series lead as they face the Brewers in Game 2, after securing a victory yesterday. Stephen Kolek gets the ball for San Diego, while Jose Quintana counters for Milwaukee. With the Padres already having stolen a game on the road, the pressure is on the Brewers to even the series before heading to San Diego.
Kolek’s performance will again be key. The Padres will be looking for a strong start from him to maintain their momentum. Quintana, a veteran lefty, will need to be effective in keeping the Padres’ offense at bay and avoiding another loss at home. The fact the Padres won Game 1 will change the mentality of the players. San Diego knows they can win in Milwaukee. Will they be too confident?
Prediction:
The Brewers are favored at home after losing Game 1. They will be desperate to even the series. While Kolek is a promising pitcher, Quintana’s experience could be a factor. I expect to see a Brewers win!
Predicted Score: Brewers 5, Padres 3
