Best World Series bets: Four Game 2 prop bet picks and predictions |
SPORTSBOOKWIRE
The Arizona Diamondbacks and Texas Rangers meet in Game 2 of the 2023 World Series Saturday in Arlington. First pitch at Globe Life Field is at 8:03 p.m. ET (FOX).
Best-of-7 series: Rangers lead 1-0
In Friday’s lid-lifter, Texas battled back from a 5-3 deficit in 9th to eventually win 6-5 in 11 innings. RF Adolis Garcia went 3-for-4, and it was his walk-off home run that ended the Game 1 thriller.
Game 2 always feels like a have-to-have-it contest for the losing club in an opener. And the 2nd game of this Fall Classic is a pitching matchup that looks very even on paper. RHP Merrill Kelly will twirl it for Arizona; Texas counters with LHP Jordan Montgomery.
The plusses and minuses those 2 hurlers bring to the table will be joined by how the bullpens were used in Game 1. And that will be the core of how we target certain prop bets for Saturday’s game.
