In Milwaukee, Landen Roupp faces an opener-led Brewers lineup with Shane Drohan starting and Chad Patrick handling the bulk of the workload, and both hosts land on the under and the Giants run line in a low-total game where paying a big price on a three-inning pitcher does not make sense. David Sandlin faces the same Minnesota Twins club he dominated in his MLB debut five days…
