Final Betting Pick

The Dodgers are a strong pick on the money line at -170. They have a solid record of 61-45 this season and perform well on the road with a 26-24 record. With Yoshinobu Yamamoto starting, his low ERA of 2.55 gives them an edge. The Reds’ starter, Chase Burns, has struggled with a high ERA of 6.65, which may make it hard for the Reds to keep up.

For the over/under, taking the under 9.0 at -105 seems wise. The Dodgers’ pitching, led by Yamamoto, can limit the Reds’ offense. The Reds have also shown strong pitching recently, holding opponents to low scores. This suggests a lower-scoring game, making the under a good choice.
