San Francisco Giants (24-38) at Milwaukee Brewers (37-22) — Game Preview
The San Francisco Giants and Milwaukee Brewers wrap up their four-game set at American Family Field with a Thursday afternoon meeting between a Brewers team at 37-22 and a Giants club at 24-38. Milwaukee enters the day with a clear run-prevention edge, carrying a 3.11 team ERA compared with San Francisco’s 4.53, while the offensive comparison is more mixed. The Brewers are hitting .246 with 41 home runs, while the Giants check in at .252 with 56 longballs, giving San Francisco more listed power but Milwaukee the stronger overall record and pitching profile entering the matchup. Adrian Houser takes the ball for the Giants carrying a 2-5 record and a 5.59 ERA across 56.1 innings, opposite Coleman Crow, who has worked to a 3.14 ERA and a 0.98 WHIP through 14.1 innings of mostly relief work for Milwaukee.
Luis Arraez gives San Francisco a high-contact bat near the top of the lineup with a .322 average and a .364 on-base mark out of the two-hole, while Casey Schmitt adds the power dimension with 12 home runs and 33 RBIs from the designated-hitter spot. On the home side, William Contreras brings a steady offensive profile behind the plate, hitting .288 with a .351 OBP, and Jake Bauers adds a left-handed power source with 10 home runs and 36 RBIs. The matchup centers on whether Houser can limit traffic against a Brewers lineup built more around contact and pressure than overwhelming power, while San Francisco looks to turn its higher team average and home-run total into enough support on the road.

Players to Watch: San Francisco Giants vs. Milwaukee Brewers
San Francisco Giants
Luis Arraez — 2B. Arraez is hitting .322 with a .364 OBP and a .430 slugging percentage, the kind of contact profile that has made him one of the toughest at-bats in the National League this season. He is the Giants’ table-setter, and his ability to get on base in front of the power bats is what gives San Francisco a lineup pulse on days the long ball isn’t there.
Casey Schmitt — DH. Schmitt has supplied the thump from the designated hitter slot with 12 home runs, 33 RBIs and a .280 average. He pairs the only double-digit home run total in the Giants’ active lineup with a batting average comfortably above team pace, making him one of San Francisco’s key run-production bats in an afternoon matchup where extra-base damage could matter.
Adrian Houser — SP. Houser carries a 2-5 record and a 5.59 ERA across 56.1 innings with 35 strikeouts and a 1.56 WHIP. The WHIP points to traffic on the bases, so sharper command will be important as he faces his former organization in a ballpark where extra baserunners can quickly turn into scoring chances.
Milwaukee Brewers
William Contreras — C. Contreras is hitting .288 with a .351 on-base mark and a .388 slug, leading Milwaukee in batting average while also handling the everyday catching workload. He is the offensive engine behind the plate for a team that doesn’t beat you with raw power — it beats you with relentless contact and traffic on the bases.
Jake Bauers — 1B. Bauers has provided steady pop at first base with 10 home runs, 36 RBIs and a .270 average. His 36 RBIs lead the Brewers’ active hitters in this lineup, and his left-handed bat gives Milwaukee another run-producing option against Houser if the Brewers can put runners on base ahead of him.
Coleman Crow — SP. Crow gets the ball with a 3.14 ERA and a 0.98 WHIP across 14.1 innings, along with eight strikeouts and no decisions in a swing role. His limited workload makes the sample smaller than Houser’s, but the early run-prevention numbers give Milwaukee a useful arm to open the game against a Giants lineup that brings more team home-run power than the Brewers.
