Yoshinobu Yamamoto and The Los Angeles Dodgers will go for an equalizer on Wednesday in Game 2 of their series with the Oakland Athletics at Dodger Stadium.
The Dodgers absorbed an absolute embarrassment after bowing to the Oakland Athletics 1-11 in Tuesday’s Game 1. Starter Landon Knack allowed 5 earned runs over 4.2 innings, and the Dodgers bullpen surrendered 6 more in the blowout loss. The horrible result raised the Dodgers’ ERA to 4.00, which is disappointing for a team loaded with top-flight pitchers.
The Athletics (22-20) are now in second place in the AL West following their emphatic win on Wednesday. They are only within 1.5 games of the AL West pacesetters, the Seattle Mariners 22-20. Oakland has been feeling it behind the plate in their last five games, batting .304 with 6.3 runs per game.

Our Los Angeles Dodgers vs Athletics Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Yoshinobu Yamamoto will not strike out five batters against the Athletics
Reasons to Bet Yoshinobu Yamamoto UNDER 5.5 Strikeouts: Yamamoto has struggled in the last three starts. In his last mound appearance against the D-Backs, Yamamoto only struck out 4 batters and allowed 5 earned runs 5.0 innings. Yamamoto should brace for Oakland’s waxing hot offense that produces 6.3 runs per game on a staggering .304 batting average. It will be interesting to see how Yamamoto will bounce back from this pitching slump that has not only impacted his record but his team’s overall performance.
