- Over 9 (-115), Under 9 (-105)
The Phillies are seen as the favorites as they have already won the first game of the three-game series with an 8-3 final score.

As for the total, in each of their last five games, the total has been hit all five times. In the first game of the series, the Phillies were able to take care of business on their side, but if the Nationals could get things going as well, the over here would be an easy option.

The A’s are sitting at 21-10 which is good for first in the AL West while the Rangers are at 11-18 which is third in the AL West.

Looking at the point total, it is surprising that the over here is favored.
Bettors would expect the A’s to be able to help contribute to the point total but they have only been able to hit the over in three of their last ten games. The Rangers, however, have been able to hit the over in eight of their last 10 games.
If the A’s could get things rolling the over could be a play.
San Diego Padres Vs. Seattle Mariners
On the back end of Wednesday’s games, the San Diego Padres are favored to defeat the Seattle Mariners.
San Diego Padres vs. Seattle Mariners
- Padres (-220) vs. Mariners (+190)
- Over 8.5 (Even), Under 8.5 (-120)
The San Diego Padres have seen tons of success recently going 7-1 in their last eight games while the Mariners have gone 5-3.
Although the Padres are favored, the Mariners could pull off the upset here as they did in the first game of the MLB series. Not only did they take the first game but they did it in convincing fashion as they won with an 8-3 final score. If the Mariners can hit the ground running in the second game, they would offer a nice payout.
The game total is favored under being that the Mariners cannot get the ball rolling when they are at bat as they have only hit the over in five of their last 10 games while the Padres have gone over in eight of their last 10.
If the Mariners don’t get it together here as they did in the first game, the under would be the way to go.
