Soroka vs Woodruff: High-Scoring Finale

0:00It's April 30th. Welcome in. This is Milwaukee Brewers News Today, where your team meets AI. I'm Corey with the story. It's the decisive third game in the series between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Milwaukee Brewers at American Family Field in Milwaukee. Arizona sends Michael Soroka to the mound. They're 4 and 0 starter with a sharp 2.60 ERA while Milwaukee counters with Brandon. Woodruff, who's 2 and 1, but coming off his first loss of the season. Soroka's been dominant, leading the team with 34 strikeouts and an 11.06 strikeouts per 9 innings rate. His slurved pitch is fooling hitters left and right. Woodruff, though, is struggling to miss bats with just a 20% strikeout rate, his lowest in years, which spells trouble against Arizona's lineup. The Diamondbacks have feasted on Woodruff historically, hitting 270 with a 778 OPS against him, including strong showings from Corbin Carroll and Catelle Marte.

1:01Offense has exploded in the series already, with 23 total runs across the first two games. Both bullpins are shaky. Arizona's ranks bottom four and the National League at 4.93 ERA and Milwaukee sits middle of the pack. That plus recent trends, like the overhitting in four of the last six head to heads, points to a high scoring affair.
