The Milwaukee Brewers will go against the Chicago Cubs in MLB action in Wrigley Field, IL, on Saturday, April 9, 2022, at 2:20 PM ET.

On Thursday afternoon at a frigid Wrigley Field, the Brewers took a 1-0 lead, but the 2021 Cy Young Award victor couldn’t keep it, surrendering three runs and four hits in 5 innings of work.

Milwaukee Brewers vs Chicago Cubs Predictions 4/9/2022

With a 5-4 victory over the defending NL Central Division champion Brewers, the Cubs started their 2022 season on the right foot.

Kyle Hendricks, who was making his third consecutive opening day start, set the tone by pitching into the sixth inning while surrendering only one run and 3 hits in 5 1/3 innings. He also had 7 strikeouts. After a career-high 4.77 ERA in 2021, it was a positive indication for both Hendricks and the Cubs.

Ian Happ had three hits, including 2 doubles, one of which broke a tie in the seventh inning and sent the Cubs to victory.

Shortstop Everything went well for the Cubs, as Nico Hoerner hit the first home run in the major leagues this year. Even the newbie, Seiya Suzuki of Japan, had a strong start. In his debut big league game, Suzuki touched base three times and scored a run. In a promising start for the Cubs’ biggest offseason acquisition, he singled and walked twice.

The total went OVER in 13 of the Cubs’ last 18 matches.
The total went OVER in 4 of the Chi Cubs’ last 5 matches against Milwaukee.
The Chi Cubs Cubs are 1-6 SU in their last 7 matches at home against Milwaukee.

Milwaukee Brewers vs Chicago Cubs. The MLB pick for this game is the Milwaukee Brewers. In game 2, the Brewers will send their ace 1A pitcher, Woodruff, to the mound. Last season, Woodruff finished 9-10, although his metrics suggest he could have had a better record.

In over 180 innings thrown, he only allowed 130 hits. Renfroe and Lorenzo Cain, both right-handed batters, should have a good game against Steele, who is left-handed.

The Brewers hit.230 against left-handed pitching last year, so having Renfroe in the middle of the lineup will be crucial. The Milwaukee Brewers will win to a predicted score of 7-3.
