ASA top play on 10* OVER 11.5 Los Angeles Dodgers @ Colorado Rockies, 3:10 PM ET - These teams have combined for 41 runs on 69 hits so far in this series. That is an average of nearly 14 runs per game on 23 hits per game. On a warm afternoon in Denver with high temperatures expected near 80 degrees we expect the bats to stay hot in this one. Neither team has been held below 5 runs in any of the 3 games thus far in the series. If that situation remains the same, the worst we can do here is a 6-5 final which was indeed the final score of yesterday's game which stayed just under the total of 11.5 runs. However, we absolutely expect much more than that here as both bullpens have already had plenty of work in this series with all the runs being scored thus far in this series and this now being a 4th game in a 4 day situation for each bullpen to contend with. As for the starters here, Austin Gomber faces the defending World Series Champs and he has made only 4 starts at the MLB level since the end of the 2018 season. The Rockies southpaw is still a bit unproven as a starter and faces a big challenge here with a day game start on a warm afternoon at Coors Field against one of the toughest lineups in baseball. The Dodgers start Julio Urias here and he had a 5.40 ERA vs the Rockies last season, a 4.82 ERA in Coors Fields outings in 2019, and prior to that made a start here in 2017 and allowed 6 earned runs in 4 innings. In his lone appearance at Coors Field the year before, his rookie season of 2016, Urias allowed 3 earned runs in 3 innings. The fact is that, like most pitchers, Urias stuff just doesn't have the same action in the thin air of Coors Field that it has in other venues. Look for both teams to continue to hit the ball well on Sunday in the series finale of this 4-game set. Bet Over
