The current betting odds have the Dodgers listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Dodgers have looked great in their games this season with their 67-40 record overall which has them right at the top of the NL West. They have looked great in their own ballpark too with their 31-20 home record this season. Meanwhile, the Mariners haven't looked great in their games this season with their 53-55 record overall, but that record has them right near the top of the AL West. They have been a terrible road team though with their 23-32 road record this year. The Mariners took the 1st game of this series, but they are only 5-5 in their last 10 games and haven't looked great lately with one of the worst offenses in MLB. The Dodgers have been rolling per usual with their 6-4 record in their last 10 games and they have had one of the best offenses in the league all season. Sasaki is on the mound for the Dodgers in this one and he hasn't looked great this season. He is 4-5 with a 4.71 ERA and has been giving up quite a few runs this year, but lately he has looked a lot better. He is coming off a great start in which he only gave up 1 earned run and the team has been having a ton of success with him lately, winning 4 games in a row now with him starting. The Mariners are going with Miller in this one and he has looked good this season. He is 4-5 with a 2.75 ERA and hasn't been giving up many runs all year, but lately he hasn't looked great and the team has been having more trouble with him now. He is coming off a terrible start in which he gave up 5 earned runs and the team has lost 3 games in a row with him starting too. The Mariners have been slipping down the standings lately as they haven't been at their best so even with a better starter here, the Dodgers are the more reliable team with an offense that can do some serious damage. The best way to place a bet here is on the Mariners to win this game.

“When you're playing a really good team, in a good environment, that focus level kind of gets you where we need to be.” - Cal Raleigh after their win against the LA Dodgers in their game on Tuesday.  

"You can tell that they were looking up and trying to pull the baseball vs. Justin. A lot of balls that were up, a couple of them out of the zone that they were getting to. So clearly their plan was to get on the fastball or get on stuff that was up in the zone, and he didn't change eye levels enough. That's why he gave up a lot of slug." - Dave Roberts after his team’s loss against the Mariners in their game on Tuesday.
