Money line (ML)

After taking the opener 5-2, the Diamondbacks were trounced 22-1 Saturday night and will need Kelly to give them some innings. They are 11-38 on the road and have not won more than one game on a road trip since late April.

The Dodgers have won only two of their last six games but are 29-14 at home for the season. They are 4-1 in Gonsolin’s starts this season.

Take the DODGERS (-250).

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The Diamondbacks are 5-2 ATS in Kelly’s last seven starts. They are 6-7 ATS in their last 13 games.

The Dodgers are 23-20 ATS at home but covered the spread in only two of their last six games.

Gonsolin has been pitching great and so has Kelly. The Dodgers will not have the offensive output they did Saturday night and the Diamondbacks will keep it close.

Take the DIAMONDBACKS +1.5 (-105).

Over/Under (O/U)

Only 47.5% of the games at Dodgers Stadium have gone Over the projected total.

Only one of Gonsolin’s starts so far this season has had a total of more than 9 runs. Three of Kelly’s last four starts stayed Under nine runs, as well.

Expect more of a pitching duel. Take UNDER 8.5 (+100).
