AMEDEUS' MLB GOLD STRIKE!
(MLB) Dodgers (LAD) vs. Mets (NYM),
Total: 7.50 | 100.00 Over
Result: Win
The Dodgers are coming into this game with a 3-1 lead in the series and they have been playing in some high scoring games. They have seen 8+ runs total in all 4 games of this series as well as 8 of their 9 playoff games. Their offense has been on fire in these as they just won 10-2 in the last game and have scored at least 8 runs in 3 of their last 4 as well as 4 of their last 6 games. They are going up against a Mets team that has been awful with their pitching in this series, but their offense has been very good throughout the playoffs and they are now facing elimination in this game so they will be pushing to score runs here with their backs against the wall. Jack Flaherty is starting for the Dodgers in this game and he is 13-7 with a 3.17 ERA this season. He pitched well in his last start as he allowed no runs in 7 innings against the Mets at home earlier in this series, but he did allow 4 earned runs in 5 innings against the Padres in their last series. He has not been pitching well recently either as he ended the regular season allowing at least 3 earned runs in his last 3 starts. He brought his best stuff for that start earlier in the series but it will be tough for him to replicate that performance on the road here, especially when the Mets are going to be desperate to get on the board. David Peterson is starting for the Mets in this game and he is 10-3 with a 2.90 ERA this season. He has pitched in 4 playoff games this season, pitching no more than 3 innings in any of those, but it was his last start and only start against the Dodgers in this series which he allowed 3 runs in 2 innings. The Dodgers have been hot on offense and they will be trying to end this series here so they are going to score runs on Peterson again, but Peterson is not going to pitch deep into this game either and the Mets bullpen cannot be trusted as they have been getting blown up all series. Between these two teams, there will be enough runs in this game to push it over the total.
