On Sunday, in the finale, Washington took a close loss. As for the Dodgers, they played the Rays over the weekend.

In Washington's previous four games in the first game of a series, the over has won all four of those games.

In this matchup, the Dodgers have my backing. The line is too solid to risk crossing. What Miller can do in his second game will be worth watching. On May 23, he pitched five scoreless innings in Atlanta and earned a win. This is another great performance, and I really enjoy it. The Dodgers lost a tight game on Sunday and used six pitchers. The offense was effective overall, as four different players had multiple hits. I think the Dodgers will be in good shape if Miller can go five or six innings tonight.
