The MLB slate on October 14th featured just one game, but it delivered a notable upset. The Milwaukee Brewers traveled to Los Angeles and handed the Dodgers a 6-2 defeat, silencing the home crowd at Dodger Stadium. Milwaukee controlled the contest from early on, pulling away to secure a comfortable four-run margin. It was a strong road performance for the Brewers and a disappointing showing for a Dodgers squad that could not generate enough offense at home.
The XO Sports model had this one going the other way, projecting a 4-3 Dodgers win and siding with Los Angeles as the pick. The model’s confidence sat at roughly 57%, so it was not a high-conviction call, but the actual result flipped the script entirely, with Milwaukee outscoring the predicted total for Los Angeles by a wide margin. The model finished 0-for-1 on the day, and this game was not flagged as a top pick, so the miss carries a bit less weight heading into the next round of action.
