The Brewers have lost two straight and five of their last six road contests and will be looking to snap their current four-game losing streak against Philadelphia. These clubs will be meeting for the first time in 2015.

The Phillies snapped their three-game losing streak with an 8-5 victory over Washington in the second game of their doubleheader on Sunday. Philadelphia has homered in 10 of its last 12 games and has hit 21 home runs overall this month after producing a total of 27 in April and May combined.

In his last start last Tuesday against the Yankees, Sean O'Sullivan allowed four home runs -- marking the second time this season that he has allowed at least four homers in a game. O'Sullivan is the only pitcher in the majors to allow at least four HR in two games this season.

Jimmy Nelson allowed just two hits in eight innings in his last outing (a victory over the Mets last Wednesday), after allowing 21 hits in 10 innings of work in his previous two starts combined. Nelson will be facing the Phillies for the first time in his career.

Jonathan Lucroy is hitting .500 (17-for-34) with four doubles, one triple, four homers and 10 RBI during his current eight-game road hitting streak against Philadelphia. Lucroy has been held without a hit in three of his last four games overall.

Odubel Herrera has hit 14 doubles this season -- the second most among all ML rookies (Addison Russell, 15). However, he has produced just one double in his last 14 games (June 16 at Baltimore).

HP - Gibson, 1B - Carlson, 2B - DiMuro, 3B - Hamari

If the Milwaukee Brewers are to extend their longest winning streak of the season, they'll likely need Matt Garza to end his latest rough stretch.
The right-hander looks to avoid a fourth consecutive losing start while trying to help the visiting Brewers complete a four-game sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies with a fifth straight victory Thursday night.
