The Los Angeles Dodgers are absolutely on fire, sporting the best record in all of baseball at 63-36 as they head into Sunday Night Baseball. This team is legit, and frankly, they have been running over the New York Yankees all weekend long.
Dodgers Have Owned This Rivalry Lately
Talk about a rough weekend for the Bronx Bombers! The Dodgers didn’t just take the series opener on Friday, they did it in a tight 2-1 battle that set the tone. Then, after Saturday’s game got rained out, creating a wild day/night doubleheader for Sunday, L.A. came out swinging earlier this afternoon, dropping an 8-2 bomb on the Yanks. You gotta be feeling that if you’re a Yankees fan. This isn’t just a recent trend, either. Since their 2024 World Series matchup, Los Angeles holds a dominant 8-2 record against New York. It’s a potential World Series preview, sure, but right now it looks like a preview of Dodgers dominance.
The Model Is Calling For Fireworks Tonight
So, with the Dodgers listed as the -130 favorite for tonight’s 7:20 p.m. ET game from Yankee Stadium, you might think it’s all about L.A. rolling to another win. But the real buzz is what the SportsLine Projection Model is seeing. This thing, which nailed a scorching 33-21 run on top-rated MLB picks before the All-Star break and crushed home run props for nearly 30 units of profit in 2025, simulated this game 10,000 times. Its big call? **Over 9 total runs** for tonight. It’s projecting a wild 10.3 combined runs, man! Why? When the Yankees are home underdogs, the Over is 8-4, or 67 percent, since the start of last year. Plus, this is the back-end of a doubleheader, meaning both teams are likely going deep into their bullpens. You know what that means: lesser arms on the mound, and usually, way more runs. Shohei Ohtani is even projected to go over 2 total bases, with four different batters expected to rack up more than 1.5 total bases.
Get ready for some serious offensive fireworks tonight! With the Dodgers playing like the best team in baseball and the model screaming “Over,” this isn’t just about who wins; it’s about how high that scoreboard goes!
