Prediction
Angels 4, Mariners 3
Moneyline (ML)
The ANGELS (-176) won Friday’s series opener by a 3-2 count, and you can expect the home side to come out on top in another well-pitched game in this one. The Mariners (+155) have one of their most steady pitchers going, but the Halos take this one.
New to sports betting? A winning $17.60 bet on the Angels (-176) returns a profit of $10.
Run line/Against the spread (ATS)
The Angels (-1.5, +115) won the series opener by one run, and they’ll likely do the same in this one. The Mariners (+1.5, -139) are expensive if you want insurance. AVOID THE RUN LINE.
Over/Under (O/U)
The UNDER 8.5 (-110) hit in Game 1, snapping a four-game over streak for the Angels. Still, the under is 3-1 in the past four meetings against the Mariners. Sheffield and Bundy have been running hot, so expect another lower-scoring battle.
