Shane’s Free Pick
This game could finish 1-0 and it wouldn’t shock me. The Dodgers offense is good, but they are going to lockdown with Blake Snell. Pepiot has been shutting down everyone and the Padres bats are going to be ice cold here. This game is going to be a pitchers duel, and the under is going to cash here with ease.
