Giants vs. Dodgers

BEST BET: Giants at the moneyline with BetRivers (+158)

The Giants enter Dodger Stadium tonight with a chance to wrap up the series and advance to the NLCS and simply put, the value is too good to pass up. As much as the Dodgers should come out firing in front of their home crowd as they look to avoid elimination, the pressure and toll of attempting to win back-to-back World Series' could get them early in the playoffs, especially after having to get through the one-off Wild Card game.

A couple of trends also point to a Giants win, with the SF side winning five of their last six underdog games, as well as being four from four following a game that they score 2 or less runs in (they won game three 1-0).

Overall, we of course wouldn't be surprised if the home favorites got the job done, but the smarter bet due to value is definitely for the road side to come in and send them packing.

BEST PROP: Will Smith to record 1+ hit with BetRivers (-190)

Despite going with the Giants up above, our favorite prop tonight is for Will Smith to record at least one hit. The Dodgers catcher has recorded at least one hit in every game of the series so far, with a total of four hits in three games.

Although his odds don't look amazing, the reason we've added this one is that picking a Dodgers prop to go in the same game parlay when going with the Giants ML really helps the odds. And when you consider that three of his hits have come in the two Giants wins, this looks reasonably safe!
