That might seem like a reason to back the under tonight, but I view it differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both teams maxed out their bullpens, as all 17 relievers made an appearance in the marathon matchup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That means some arms will be unavailable tonight, but more importantly, it means the hitters have had a recent look at everyone they might face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-> <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjcwOTA0JnA9MzA5MjU%3D\">See all Game 4 player props at NorthStar Bets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The situational aspect isn&#8217;t the only reason I like the over, mind you. This is a bet on two of the very best offences in the majors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In the regular season, Toronto led the majors in batting average (.265) and on-base percentage (.333) while posting a league-low strikeout rate. The Jays have the third-highest scoring average (5.03 runs\/game) across the regular season and playoffs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Dodgers finished second in the regular season in SLG (.441) and wRC+ (113). Also, they&#8217;re second in scoring (5.06 runs\/game) across the regular season and playoffs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Ohtani is a great pitcher \u2014 one of several donning Dodger Blue \u2014 but I don&#8217;t expect an all-world effort on the mound tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 75 combined plate appearances, Toronto&#8217;s lineup is batting .284 with a .478 SLG vs. Ohtani. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>George Springer, who exited Game 3 with an injury and is considered day-to-day, has the best numbers against Ohtani. But even if he&#8217;s unavailable, there are others who can step up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overs are cashing at a 57.1% rate for Toronto this year, per Team Rankings, which leads the majors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> This over is 4-2 in Blue Jays\/Dodgers matchups this season, with an average total of 9.5 runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"product_only\"><a href=\"cacheembed:120158\">Embed: #120158<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Bet on the Blue Jays to win the World Series<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best World Series prop bet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ohtani under 17.5 outs (+115)<\/strong>: The Dodgers rolled out all nine of their relievers last night. So it&#8217;s fair to assume they want Ohtani to work fairly deep into Tuesday&#8217;s game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And he might, given that he&#8217;s cleared this outs total in each of his past three starts (including two in the playoffs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I like the plus-money fade here, though, because Ohtani was more a part of the Game 3 marathon than any of the relievers who might follow him tonight. He reached base in all <em>nine<\/em> of his plate appearances, going 4-for-4 with five walks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At one point, he even needed a break in the action due to some minor cramping on the basepaths. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No one is going to feel 100% coming out of an 18-inning game. But only one guy is being asked to pitch several innings after being part of that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jays have a potent lineup that could chase Ohtani a bit early anyway, and I would be surprised if the Dodgers pushed him hard on the mound \u2014 especially since he&#8217;s also their most important hitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eight of the past nine starters to face Toronto went under this number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Blue Jays vs. Dodgers picks made at 9:23 a.m. ET on 10\/28\/2025<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjcwOTA0JnA9MzA5MjU%3D\">Sign up to NorthStar Bets today<\/a>!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After landing on the wrong side of last night&#8217;s 18-inning battle, the Toronto Blue Jays will look to level the World Series on Tuesday in Los Angeles.
