"WE GOT A SERIES WIN AND A WINNING STREAK" - Nationals
Pitching today are Patrick Corbin for Washington and Andrew Heaney for LA.
Corbin is having another dismal year in D.C. He enters play today with a record of 4-13 and an ERA of 6.02 to go along with it. Corbin has been one of the worst parts of a terrible season in Washington.
Heaney has made three starts and has been untouchable for the Dodgers. He spent some time with the Angels and Yankees last year, but injuries presumably inflated his stats. Pitching healthy, he's allowed just one run in 15 innings this season.

Washington Nationals vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Best Picks
Juan Soto has been an absolute force all season and has carried the Nationals through any success they've seen this season. When he steps to the plate, fans will likely see something miraculous. Wanting to show off in La La Land, Soto will try to top his game one performance. A home run is likely (+340), but an RBI is practically guaranteed.

Given the volatility of both these pitchers, a run in the first feels guaranteed. Vegas seems to think Heaney will continue his dominance given the first-inning run odds. Bettors looking for a little extra juice can bet on the Dodgers to score in the first inning (+550). However, the advisable pick is a run in the first.

Washington Nationals vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Predictions
With Corbin on the mound, the chances of a sweep are extremely unlikely. Heaney's untouchability has to come to an end at some point. While the Nationals may put up some runs on him, the Dodgers should be able to score more against Corbin. LA is a great bet, but the over is even better.
Over 9 Runs (-106)
