WORLD SERIES GAME 5
(MLB) Texas vs. Arizona, 10/30/2023 8:03 PM, Score: 3 - 1
Money Line: -103.00 Arizona (Home)
Result: Loss
The Diamondbacks could easily be up 2-0 in this series but will look to take a 2-1 lead, after evening the series with a 9-1 win in Game Two. Texas will send Max Scherzer to the mound. He is 0-1, with a 9.45 ERA in the postseason. Arizona will counter with Brandon Pfaadt. He has pitched well in the postseason posting a 0-0 record with a 2.70 ERA. Scherzer struggled in the ALCS, allowing seven runs, nine hits, and three walks over six innings. Pfaadt struck out 16 Phillies in his two starts of the NLCS and has 22 Ks over 16.2 innings in the postseason. Arizona has now taken four of the last five meetings between these two. The Rangers have tied an MLB postseason record with eight straight road wins. Arizona is 3-1 at home in the postseason. Arizona has won Pfaadt's last five starts and six out of seven. I like Arizona at home in this one.

Play on Arizona. This is 3% play.
