Tonight’s MLB and WNBA slates feature a pair of intriguing matchups as the Dodgers host the Pirates and the Fever visit the Liberty.
Los Angeles enters Saturday riding a four-game winning streak after Tommy Edman’s walk-off single secured a 5-4 victory over Pittsburgh in Friday’s series opener. The Dodgers will now turn to newly acquired ace Tarik Skubal as they look to keep rolling against a Pirates team that has fallen four games below .500.
In the WNBA, just two games separate Indiana and New York in the standings entering their fourth and final meeting of the regular season. The Fever hold a 2-1 advantage in the season series, but the home team has won each matchup, giving the Liberty an opportunity to even the score tonight in Brooklyn.

First Pick:Los Angeles Dodgers-1.5 (-125) overPittsburgh Pirates
Rundown: The Dodgers’ moneyline is far too expensive, so we’re counting on them to win this one comfortably.
Los Angeles has scored at least five runs throughout its four-game winning streak, averaging 7.3 per contest. That is a brutal matchup for Jared Jones, as Pittsburgh has produced just five total runs while losing each of his last five starts.
The Pirates’ defeats have rarely been close,
The Pirates’ defeats have rarely been close, with 10 of their last 11 coming by multiple runs. With Tarik Skubal on the mound and the Dodgers’ lineup heating up, lay the run and a half.
Second Pick:New York Libertyvs.Indiana Fever– Over 186.5

Rundown:This is a big number, but Indiana and New York rank second and third in the WNBA in games that have hit the over this season. Their last two meetings finished with 196 and 198 combined points, respectively.
Kelsey Mitchell has been at the center
Kelsey Mitchell has been at the center of Indiana’s offensive surge, averaging 27.9 points across her last 20 games. She enters tonight fresh off a 37-point performance and dropped 28 on the Liberty less than two weeks ago.
With Mitchell rolling and both teams consistently producing high-scoring games, hammer the over in Brooklyn.
