Milwaukee Brewers vs Los Angeles Dodgers Betting Lines
| Team | Runline | Moneyline | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Milwaukee Brewers | +1.5 (-140) | +154 | O 7.5 (-115) |
| Los Angeles Dodgers | -1.5 (+120) | -186 | U 7.5 (-105) |
The Brewers responded to a sweep by the San Diego Padres with a win over the NL West leaders. They’ve got +154 Wisconsin sports betting to notch another win on Friday night.
Milwaukee tagged Edwin Diaz with four-consecutive singles that led to his third blown save in his last four appearances. After LA blew a 4-2 lead on Thursday night, Dodgers bettors should look towards their -210 California sports betting odds for winning the first five innings behind the superior starting pitcher.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto projects for 6.5 strikeouts in the game with -130 odds favoring the over. He’s gone under his legal sports betting projection in four of his last five starts.
Yamamoto led the Dodgers to a 5-1 win in his May 24 start against Milwaukee, tossing 7.0 innings with just one run allowed but also only three strikeouts. In last year’s postseason start against the Brewers, the Dodgers ace threw a complete game allowing just one run on three hits.
Will Ohtani Showcase MVP Performance Vs Milwaukee?
Shohei Ohtani is the most likely player at MLB betting sites to hit a home run on Friday night with +260 odds. He has -150 odds to clear 1.5 total hits, runs, and RBI against Brewers left-hander Robert Gasser.
Ohtani actually hits better off lefties this season, slugging .595 against lefties compared to .516 versus right-handed pitching. Despite 126 less at bats against left-handed pitching, Ohtani has 12 homers off southpaws compared to 15 against righties.
A blast on Friday would do well for Ohtani’s NL MVP odds, where he’s neck-and-neck with Pete Crow-Armstrong of the Chicago Cubs.
