After tumbling out of first place in the NL West, it's time for the Dodgers to wake up, especially following up a second straight lopsided home loss to their long-time rivals, the Giants. The Dodgers have the right man on the mound to do this: Shohei Ohtani. He has a 0.97 ERA and 0.81 ratio. The bar is set very low here for Ohtani. The Giants average the fewest runs per game in baseball. They are last in steals and third from the bottom in home runs. They are 29th in OPS. The Dodgers rank in the top three in a number of key offensive categories, including batting average, homers, and OPS. Mookie Betts is back in LA's lineup. This is going to be a challenge for Giants starter Robbie Ray. San Francisco is 2-3 in Ray's starts this season. The Giants' past three losses have been by a combined 19 runs, an average margin of 6.3 runs. Lay 1.5 on the runline with the Dodgers.

Pro Picks
Los Angeles at San Francisco
The LA Dodgers have put together another great team that is the favorite to come back and win it again. The Dodgers and Padres are currently both on top of the NL West with a 16-8 record. The San Francisco Giants are 11-13 on the season, and are picking up some momentum with two straight wins. The Giants' games this season have seen just 178 total runs. The Dodgers have hit a little bump in the road with two straight losses. Glasnow has not taken a loss since August 30, 2025. He has not allowed more than two earned runs in 9 of his last 11 starts since then. I don't see much scoring in this one. Play the UNDER.
