Los Angeles Dodgers vs New York Yankees Prediction

Game 1 Prediction: It’s tough to make a pick when you don’t have listed pitchers, but I’ll lean toward the Yankees if forced to pick. An early start time usually favors the home team. It’s also an early start for a team on a West Coast body clock. The Yankees also haven’t strung losses together much this season.

Game 2 Prediction: I’ll side with the under. After playing a game, the bats may cool off. Also, Yamamoto has a 2.85 ERA and 0.91 WHIP, while Schlittler has a 2.05 ERA and 0.94 WHIP through 118.2 innings—two of the best arms in the business this season. Even with talented lineups, we’re likely going to see a low-scoring game here. Give me the under.
