Pick2: Seattle Mariners +0.5 F3 (-190) ...

8/15 9:40pm (-190 Odds via Caesar Sportsbook)

In this incredible pitching matchup, with Louis Castillos versing Shohei Ohtani, with an over/under run total set at a very low 6.5, I am predicting a low scoring/scoreless first few innings. If Castillos is able to get off to a great start before the bats catch up to him, which he is very capable of as he would only need to face each batter one time around, that would set this entry off to a great start. The added bonus of this wager is the provided safety net, that is if the Mariners score and take the lead early, or even hold onto a tie, which would greatly increases the likelihood of this wager's success as they strictly cannot afford to be trailing at the conclusion of the third inning. I think this is very possible defensively for Castillos, and likewise for Ohtani, as Castillos has only allowed three runs in his last 15 innings pitched, as his runs are typically scored later in the game.
