Arizona took the previous game in the series by a score of 5-3, marking a solid victory that will provide them confidence heading into this contest.<\/p>\n<p>The Diamondbacks currently sit at 20-18, boasting an above-average season, while the Dodgers lead the division with a strong 25-13 record. However, recent trends show Arizona\u2019s offense ranking 6th overall in MLB and 7th in team home runs, indicating they&#8217;re capable of putting runs on the board against any pitching staff. In contrast, the Dodgers possess the 2nd best offense in MLB, coupled with an impressive 3rd rank in team batting average. <\/p>\n<p>On the mound, Arizona is projected to start Eduardo Rodriguez, who, despite a 1-3 record and a troubling ERA of <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">5.92<\/a>, has an xFIP suggesting he\u2019s been a bit unlucky this year. Rodriguez has shown he can strike out batters, projecting an average of 5.1 strikeouts today, but he also has serious control issues with 2.0 walks projected. Roki Sasaki, pitching for the Dodgers, has a solid 1-1 record and a good ERA of <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">3.86<\/a>, but projections indicate that he may struggle today, especially against a patient D-Backs lineup that draws walks more than most.<\/p>\n<p>With a high Game Total set at 10.5 runs, betting markets view this matchup as highly competitive, reflected in the D-Backs&#8217; moneyline of -120 and Dodgers&#8217; +100. Analysts highlight the potential for a close, high-scoring affair that could swing either way based on the performances of these starters.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Los Angeles Dodgers Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Roki Sasaki &#8211; Over\/Under 3.5 Strikeouts (-155\/+120)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Because of his reverse platoon split, Roki Sasaki will benefit from squaring off against 6 batters in the projected offense of opposing handedness in today&#8217;s matchup.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> A pitcher with a reverse platoon split will perform better against opposite-handed hitters (i.e. a right-handed pitcher will be better against a left-handed hitter).
