Lively has been an incredibly effective starter for the Guardians in 2025, pitching to a 3.46 ERA and 1.200 WHIP in eight starts. The last two outings have seen Lively limit the Minnesota Twins and Washington Nationals to one run and seven hits combined. The one run allowed by Lively being a solo shot from Washington's Riley Adams this past Tuesday.

Freddy Peralta draws the start for Milwaukee, as the Brewers are looking to win their second straight game after three consecutive losses to the Tampa Bay Rays and Houston Astros.

Peralta enters this start with a 2.18 ERA, 1.037 WHIP, and a 9.5 K/9 ratio. The 28-year-old right-hander has allowed more than two runs in a start just once this season and has not given up more than three at any time in 2025.

Carlos Santana is the only Cleveland hitter with more than one hit against Peralta, going 2-8 (both doubles) while striking out three times. Steven Kwan (1-6), Jose Ramirez (1-4), and Bo Naylor (1-4) also have hits against Peralta, but all three were singles.
