Prediction
Diamondbacks 5, Dodgers 4
Moneyline (ML)
The Dodgers (-143) are favored Saturday after splitting the first two games of the series. The Diamondbacks’ bats woke up late in Friday’s 5-3 win, hoping to ride that success into the weekend. Weaver struggled in his first start 2020, his first start since coming back from Tommy John surgery. He was arguably Arizona’s best pitcher before suffering the injury and should fare better in his second start. Expect ARIZONA (+130) to give LA a second straight loss, and give you great value on the moneyline. Take the DIAMONDBACKS +130.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)
The Dodgers (-1.5, +105) were in position to win Friday, but the bullpen couldn’t hold on to a lead and now they turn to Urias. In his last start, the young southpaw allowed eight baserunners (five hits, three walks) in five innings. After taking advantage Friday, the Diamondbacks will take advantage on Saturday. Take the DIAMONDBACKS +1.5 (-125).
Over/Under (O/U)
The O/U is 9.5, with the Over odds at -105 and the Under at -115. After pushing the nine-run total Thursday and going Under Friday, Arizona’s games have gone Under in five of its eight games. That will continue Saturday. Take the UNDER 9.5 (-115).
