The St. Louis Cardinals will go for two wins in a row as they brace for a strong fightback from the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 2 of their weekend series on Saturday at Busch Stadium.
The Cardinals drew the first blood in the series, winning game 1 against the Dodgers via score of 5-0. St. Louis, who has been pitching above 5.00 ERA this past week, secured a shutout against the team with arguably the most loaded batting lineup in the majors. Sonny Gray extended his win streak, keeping the Dodgers scoreless into the 7th innings while Pedro Pages belted a crucial two-run homer that set the tone for the match.
The Dodgers have absorbed their third loss in five games, but Friday’s futile effort must be the most painful of all losses this week since it further exposed their ongoing offensive slump. The Dodgers, a team that features big bats like Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman and Mookie Bets, are averaging 3.2 runs on a .234 batting average over the past 5 games.

Our St. Louis Cardinals vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
Why you should bet on the Dodgers to cover -1.5 Runs (Win $100 on a $105 Bet): Yoshinobu Yamamoto is set to start for the Dodgers on Saturday. The Japanese hurler is 3-2 in his last five starts and coming off a lousy outing against the Yankees, where he conceded 4 runs over 3.2 innings. Still, I believe Yamamoto will bounce back with a strong performance vs. the Cardinals, whom he held scoreless over 5.0 innings in his first and only start against the team. The Dodgers average 5.7 runs per game after a loss this season, so I am also looking forward to their big bats stepping up their game on Friday. Shohei Ohtani and Co. will be facing Cardinals hurler Erick Fedde, who has lost his last four starts.
Our betting prediction for the St. Louis Cardinals vs. LA Dodgers: Los Angeles Dodgers -1.5 Runs
