Pre-buzz around the game
The Mariners have come under heavy criticism for their poor offense. Their only consolation comes in the form of Kyle Lewis with a .316 batting average and four home runs to his credit. Their 22 games have yielded just seven wins. At the other end, the Dodgers have gone from strength-to-strength and are actually one of the sides with a stellar offense record. Mookie Betts has been their rising star with a .309 batting average, 8 home runs, and 18 RBI.
Who will win?
Quite obviously, the Dodgers come in as favorites. With recent wins, they will be on the confident side and will look to capitalize on the Mariners' slump both with bat and ball.
