Brewers Beat Cardinals 6-4 as Misiorowski Shines, Chourio Prop Cashes

The Milwaukee Brewers closed out the regular season with a 6-4 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday at American Family Field, riding a dominant pitching matchup that played out much as expected. Jacob Misiorowski turned in 5.1 scoreless innings, and the Brewers' offense did the rest against Andre Pallante, who was tagged for six earned runs on ten hits in five innings.

Our premium pick was Milwaukee on the moneyline, and it cashed comfortably. The Brewers never trailed, and the run line (-1.5) also hit in a two-run victory. The over on the total cleared as well, with ten combined runs.

On the prop side, one of three plays connected. Jackson Chourio over 1.5 total bases was never in doubt — he went 3-for-4 with three total bases, two runs, and two RBI, clearing the +107 number with room to spare.

Jacob Misiorowski over 6.5 strikeouts was the one that got away. He finished with five, one and a half short of the number. The stuff was there — zero earned runs, two hits — but St. Louis hitters put the ball in play enough to keep his pitch count in check and his strikeout total under the line.

Jake Bauers over 0.5 walks finished on the wrong side, as he walked zero times in four plate appearances while striking out once.

The takeaway: when a pitcher's strikeout prop is priced near his season average, a shortened outing against a contact-oriented lineup can sink it even in a dominant start. Chourio's plus-money total bases play is the kind of value that keeps working as long as his extra-base profile holds.
