00:00And we just discussed with Tom Vecchio, the Dodgers and the Diamondbacks late night in
00:07Los Angeles.
00:08Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the bump for the Dodgers, booked as a greater than $2 favorite.
00:14Tonight's total at eight and a half.
00:15Joe Mantiply on the other side for Arizona.
00:18The Dodgers heavily favored.
00:20They won their final three games of a four game weekend set against Cincinnati.
00:25Probably should be heavily favored as well.
00:26You take a look at Yamamoto on the mound, last 100 batters over the previous month here,
00:30a walk percentage of five percent, which is very good.
00:32Strikeout percentage, 23 percent, which is very good.
00:35And you take a look at this ISO power numbers, 147, very good.
00:38And also weighted on base percentage at 259.
00:41The Diamondbacks, I like the lineup overall, but going up against Yamamoto, it doesn't
00:45really look great.
00:46You're taking a look at only looks like two, actually one guy over 180 ISO power number.
00:51And that's Jacques Peterson at 246.
00:53He had a couple RBI props yesterday that did cash in.
00:57But outside of that, it doesn't look like a great lineup.
00:59And then as we always turn it over here to the Dodgers, Mantiply, the left-handed pitcher
01:03on the mound today for the Diamondbacks, hasn't been all that bad.
01:06Last 30 days, he's only faced 34 batters, but he's got an ISO of 121 and a weighted
01:10on base percentage of 247.
01:12Even though I really like that Dodgers lineup, which again, you're going to like that basically
01:16on a night-to-night basis, it probably leans towards the Dodgers winning this baseball
01:20game by run line and also keeping it low scoring with an under as well.
01:24Like a 4-2 outcome probably feels right at this point, but I would be surprised if the
01:28Diamondbacks won this game.
