Expert Betting Tips

As a kind of value play, I'm going to keep my bet on the Nationals. The starting duo could use a solid performance, though. In his previous start against Kansas City, Corbin allowed six earned runs over 6.1 innings while picking up the victory. Corbin has won his last three starts, all of which lasted at least six innings. However, I would consider it tough for the Los Angeles Dodgers to win three games in a row in a series. Thus, the Washington Nationals should emerge victorious after a tough battle.
