Arizona Diamondbacks Can Win If…
They keep their offensive momentum going. The D-backs crushed Colorado 13–6 on Sunday with 17 hits, led by Adrian Del Castillo (HR, 3 RBIs) and Ketel Marte (2 hits, 3 RBIs).
Arizona ranks 3rd in slugging percentage (.438) and 5th in doubles (207), showing they can hit for both power and extra bases. Ryne Nelson (3.20 ERA) will need to limit Texas’ early scoring chances, especially against right-handed bats like Marcus Semien and Corey Seager.
Texas Rangers Can Win If…
Nathan Eovaldi continues his historic run. The veteran righty has allowed just two earned runs in his last six starts, lowering his ERA to 1.38. He has matched a feat last achieved by Bob Gibson in 1968, allowing one run or fewer in 13 of 14 starts.
The Rangers lead MLB in ERA (3.31) and opponent batting average (.225), giving them a major advantage on the mound. Corey Seager (17 HR, .265 AVG) and Marcus Semien (56 RBIs) will be relied upon to jumpstart a lineup that’s cooled during their recent 4-game losing streak.

The Lean
Eovaldi’s elite command and Texas’ pitching depth give them the clear edge despite Arizona’s hot bats. The Rangers’ offense hasn’t been firing on all cylinders, but one or two big innings might be enough here.
Pick: Rangers ML (-162)
Projected Score: Rangers 5, Diamondbacks 3
Total Lean: Under 7.5 — elite pitching matchup favors fewer runs.
