St. Louis Cardinals - Los Angeles Dodgers - MLB

Wager: $150.  Los Angeles Dodgers will play St. Louis Cardinals at 10:10 ET today:  The Dodgers and the Cardinals will continue their 3-game series at Dodger Stadium tonight with Game Two and a matchup between the pitchers M. Leake for the Cardinals and R. Hill for L.A.; Hill will be making a 2nd start since returning from the disabled list. He has 2.77 ERA with a record of 1-1. Leake will enter the night with a 2.03 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and .217 opponents' batting average, as he is 2nd to the NL's ERA leader Kershaw; he is the underdog(?!). With that said, we pick the St. Louis Cardinals (-150) @ Bet365, with the spread of (+1.5) runs. Unless otherwise stated, our Bet is $100.

UPDATE, May 25, 2017: St. Louis Cardinals  6-1 Los Angeles Dodgers. As we expected above, M. Leake helped the Cardinals winning this game, as he fired a four-hitter for eight innings, while his team St.L.C. capitalized on 7 walks issued by Dodgers starter R. Hill and a two-run error by left fielder Bellinger. The win was the Cardinals' 10th in their last 11 road games and pulled them to within a half-game of the division-leading Brewers. Leake (5-2) reclaimed the NL ERA lead from Kershaw at 1.91, striking out five, without a walk. Our Bet wins: $150 investment returns $249, $99 Net Profit, 66% ROI.

BONUS Pick: Matrix888: May 25. Our 2nd pick, MLB: Boston Red Sox - Texas Rangers, 7:10 pm ET. Red Sox will play their final game of the series vs. the Rangers. The Red Sox will send lefty Dr. Pomeranz to the mound, who had a terrible performance, as of late: He could not past the 4th inning in the last four starts.  Texas Rangers will counter with Martinez, who was able to hold the Tigers to 1 run in his last showing, enabling Texas to win 5-3. I think the odds unfairly put the R. Sox as heavy favorites tonight. With that, we pick Texas Rangers with the spread of (+2.5) runs, @ BET365: 1.52 (-190). Wager: $150.

UPDATE, May 26:  Boston Red Sox 6-2 Texas Rangers.  Texas R. were swept by the B. Red Sox, as the last defeat by 4 runs included 20 Ks: 5 Red Sox pitchers combined for the 20 Ks, tying a ML record for a 9-inning game. Pomeranz earned a win, holding the heavy-hitting Texas to 4 hits, 2 runs, while walking one, and equaling a personal best with 11 strikeouts, a total surprise to say the least!  Still, the Rangers were "in it" with +2.5 runs spread until the bottom of the 8th inning, when D. Marrero added a two-run shot to the left. Our bet lost at that point (-$150).

BONUS Pick: Matrix888.org: May 26: Our 3rd Pick:  Basketball-Philippines PC:  NU Bulldogs 68-76  FEU Tamaraws, LIVE BET, 4th Q., 5:18: "Point Spread": FEU -7.5 pts., @ BET365: 1.90 Dec. Odds. Wager: $250. UPDATE: NU Bulldogs 77-88 FEU Tamaraws. FEU beat the spread of (-7.5) pts. in the last 5 mins. of the game, a WIN for us: $250 returns $475: $225 Net Profit; and after covering the loss from the MLB game above ($150), the total Net Profit is $75.
