Dodgers vs. Giants

BEST BET: Giants at the moneyline with BetRivers (+101)

I love this Giants team. It was apparent early in the season that this ball club was legit - the only question was how were they going to go against the Dodgers in October. They passed the first test last night with ease and go into the series sequel with nothing but confidence that they can get a near-unassailable 2-0 lead.

With Gausman and Urias starting off for the Giants and Dodgers respectively, a low run total similar to last night's game could be on the cards. One thing in San Francisco's favor is their form against left-handers. In their last five games, they're averaging almost 8 runs per nine innings when facing a leftie. We're backing the underdogs in again to prevail.

BEST PROP: Kris Bryant to record an RBI with BetRivers (+195)

This market has proven to be a lot of fun throughout the postseason and is a great one to bet on if you're looking for a little more safety than a traditional home run bet. Kris Bryant was one of the stars of the show last night, going a a perfect 3-3 with a bomb to kill the game off late in the 7th inning. He may not go yard again, but if he has runners on base he may just help turn over the scoreboard regardless, considering the form he is in.
