Well, they're likely not going to finish 122-40, but after a 6-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners July 21, the Brewers have won 11 straight games and suddenly have Major League Baseball's best record. That also means they've hurdled the rival Chicago Cubs in the National League Central Division standings.

Preview, lineups, and expert betting tips for the MLB clash between Los Angeles Dodgers vs Milwaukee Brewers on July 20, 2025.

The Milwaukee Brewers, currently on an historic eight-game winning streak, have seem to have taken Major League Baseball by storm in regard to the level of national attention they are getting.

The Brewers have been playing great baseball, but expecting them to sweep the Dodgers twice in one month is too much (L.A. is 33-19 at home). Will Smith has destroyed left-handed pitching (179 wRC+), and Shohei Ohtani has been adept at punishing pitchers of either hand, so both are likely to play a part if the Dodgers score runs in bunches.

Right-hander Quinn Priester collected 10 strikeouts, Caleb Durbin hit a home run and added an RBI double, and the Milwaukee Brewers continued their dominance over the host Los Angeles Dodgers with a 2-0 victory on Friday.
