Dodgers vs Giants – Game Preview, Prediction and Player Props
Moneyline: LA Dodgers -154
Total: 8.0
RunLine: LA Dodgers -1.5 (+110)
Los Angeles Dodgers
The Dodgers look like they’ve shaken off their late-summer slump and are back to flexing their dominance in the NL West. After a brutal stretch on the road, Los Angeles has ripped off four straight wins, anchored by strong pitching and some explosive bats.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto (11-8, 2.72 ERA) will take the mound after nearly spinning a no-hitter in Baltimore before it was spoiled by a ninth-inning homer. Backed by a lineup where Mookie Betts and Teoscar Hernández are both swinging fire-hot bats, Yamamoto has all the support he needs to keep the Dodgers’ surge alive.
Dodgers Prop to Watch: Mookie Betts Over 1.5 Total Bases – Betts has RBIs in five straight games and continues to scorch the ball.
San Francisco Giants Betting Outlook
The Giants may be trailing in the NL West race, but the wild-card chase is still alive and kicking. San Francisco has been one of baseball’s hottest teams since late August, going 13-4 during that stretch. With Rafael Devers hitting .333 over his last 14 games and Willy Adames chipping in clutch offense, this lineup has been carrying its weight.
San Francisco will lean on Justin Verlander (3-10, 4.09 ERA) to stop the Dodgers. The 42-year-old hasn’t been at his best this season, but he still knows how to keep LA honest. If he can settle in and avoid early damage, the Giants’ bats will have a chance to keep this tight.
Giants Prop to Watch: Rafael Devers to Record an RBI – Devers has been driving in runs consistently since arriving, and the Dodgers won’t want to face him with men on.
MLB Prediction & Betting Angle
The Dodgers are priced at -156 on the moneyline, and it’s hard to ignore their momentum with Yamamoto on the bump. The Giants are fighting tooth and nail for a wild-card berth, but LA’s firepower and recent pitching edge give them the upper hand.
Final Score Prediction: Dodgers 5, Giants 3
Lean: LA Dodgers -1.5 (+110)
Total: Over 7.5 Alt Lines (-130)
