Los Angeles Dodgers (47-27) versus Tampa Bay Rays (49-29) is an interleague matchup on Wednesday evening at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers will be seeking to complete a clean sweep in this series after taking their first two assignments. They’re coming off a close 1-0 win on Tuesday night with Shohei Ohtani hitting his 15th home run of the season to break the scoreless game. They’re the -200 betting favorites to win today.

Tampa Bay Rays, on the other side of the grass, will be proud of how they’ve stood up against arguably the best offense in the league. Before the 1-0 defeat, they lost 4-3 on Monday night, raising some questions about their consistency, especially on the road. They’ve gone 17-20 away from home this season, including just a single win in their last five assignments. The Rays could be staring at another defeat tonight.

Our Los Angeles Dodgers vs Tampa Bay Rays Prediction

Everything points towards another win for the Dodgers on the -200 moneyline odds. They’ve been excellent at home lately, winning 11 of their last 13 assignments. The Dodgers also went 3-1 over their last four matches. In contrast, the Rays have been struggling on the road recently, going 1-6 in their last seven games. However, we think the under 8.5 line has the best value in this contest. The Dodgers will start Shohei Ohtani, who is having a great season with a 6-2 record and a 1.06 ERA. He was 1-for-4 on Tuesday with two strikeouts and should comfortably handle the visitors’ offense. The Rays will counter his influence with Shane McClanahan, who has a 6-4 record with a solid 3.23 ERA. Overall, both pitchers provide reliable hands, although Ohtani clearly gives the Dodgers an edge.

Our prediction for Los Angeles Dodgers vs Tampa Bay Rays: Under 8.5 runs to hit.
