Colorado Rockies vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 8/20/25, 4:55 PM  by Carlos Zabala | Modified on 10/2/25 at 5:53 PM in MLB Picks

The Rockies snapped a streak of more than 10 games in which the Dodgers beat them on Monday, regardless of whether it was at Dodger Stadium or Coors Field. Without much pressure, and with the Dodgers desperately needing a win, the Rockies unexpectedly won Game 1, even though the Dodgers had started as -300 favorites to win.

It was a home run-less game for the Dodgers on Monday, although Ohtani continued to heat up, getting two hits and putting his team ahead. However, the rookie Rockies tied the game with an RBI single by Ritter, and their star player Tovar responded with a home run in the seventh to tie it again. Later in the ninth inning, Bernabel hit the walk-off hit that circulated on social media and gave the team with the worst record in MLB the victory.

In Game 2, there was much more hitting; Betting sites set the Game Total line around 12.5 runs, and by the bottom of the sixth, 11 runs had already been scored with the Dodgers leading 7-4. This can be explained by things like Teoscar Hernandez going 0-for-4 in Game 1, but by Game 2, halfway through the game, he had already taken four at-bats, one of which included an RBI double.
