Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Atlanta Braves @ 6:05 p.m. EST
- Moneyline: Dodgers (-190) vs. Braves (+145)
- Spread: Dodgers (-1.5)
- O/U: 9.5
Teams to score first in the game
- Los Angeles Dodgers -245
- Atlanta Braves +180
Winner: Atlanta Braves (+180). The Atlanta Braves have scored first in every postseason game and that trend should continue in Game 3 of the NLCS.
The Braves have yet to drop a game in the playoffs and sportsbooks listing them as the underdog to score first when they’ve been among the best hitting teams in the MLB is sinister.
Take the +180 odds that the Braves touch home plate before the Dodgers.
Total Hits, Runs, and RBI’s – Ronald Acuna Jr.

- Over 2.5 +120
- Under 2.5 -160
Best Bet: Over (+120). Ronald Acuna Jr. has been one of the most important players for the Braves this season (aside from Freddie Freeman) and in Game 3 expect him to set the tone for Atlanta’s bats.
Acuna has scored a run in the last two games for the Braves and he’s a threat to score every time he gets on base. Take the Over (+120) with confidence as Acuna has yet to have a breakout game yet but that could change with just one swing of the bat and the Over being 2.5 for this prop has a very high chance of going over.
Tampa Bay Rays vs. Houston Astros @ 8:40 p.m. EST
- Moneyline: Rays (-142) vs. Astros (+122)
- Spread: Astros (-1.5)
- O/U: 8
Will there be a run scored in the 1st Inning?
- Yes +120
- No -160
Best Bet: Yes (+120). At least one run has been scored in the first inning of each ALCS game thus far with both the Rays and Astros taking turns scoring runs.
Take the +120 odds at online sportsbooks that the trend continues in Game 4. The bats should come alive for both teams as the Astros are looking to avoid being swept.
Austin Meadows to have 1+ Hit and TB to Win (+122)
Tampa Bay Rays Outfielder Austin Meadows hasn’t registered a hit in nine at-bats in the ALCS thus far, but this could be the game where he registers his first hit to get the Rays back into the World Series.
The Rays are favored to win this game and although Meadows has struggled against Astros pitching, he is capable of registering at least one hit tonight. With +122 odds this prop on Meadows is one of the best player props to bet on tonight
