Let's analyze BetMGM Sportsbook's MLB odds around the Dodgers vs. Cardinals odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets. Season series: Cardinals lead 2-0 Los Angeles was shut out 5-0 in Friday's lid-lifter and dropped Saturday's matinee second game 2-1. LA is just 2-5 over its last 7 games. The Cardinals won Saturday's contest in walk-off fashion. The Redbirds and Dodgers were tied 1-1 when 3B Nolan Arenado stepped to the plate as a pinch hitter with no outs and runners at the corners. Arenado delivered an RBI single to give St. Louis its third win in its last 4 games. Dodgers at Cardinals projected starters LHP Clayton Kershaw vs. RHP Michael McGreevy Expert MLB daily picks: Unique MLB betting insights only at USA TODAY Kershaw (0-0, 5.17 ERA) is lined up for his fifth start.

McGreevy has logged a 1.57 ERA and solid analytics support numbers over his first 28 2/3 Major League innings (2024-25). And he's coming off a successful month at Triple-A. Kershaw has run into a lot of bats and too much loud contact so far. The Cards are a lean. The pitching data going in is incomplete, though, and there isn't much team actual-vs.-expected leverage to add. Consider a partial-unit play on ST. LOUIS (+115). No interest. AVOID. The Under is undefeated across the last 4 Dodgers-Cardinals games. Both sides have some runs-allowed-vs.-expected numbers calling for better yields in the pitching-and-defense department. The Redbirds are turned around to the lesser side of their platoon numbers when facing lefties. Again, the value here is limited. Make a partial-unit play on the UNDER 9 (-105).

Canes one victory short of a berth in College World Series after beating Louisville 9-6
The Miami Hurricanes (35-26) edged the Louisville Cardinals (39-22) by a final score of 9-6 in Game 2 of the NCAA Louisville Super Regional on Saturday afternoon. The victory evened the best-of-3 series at one victory apiece. The winner goes to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska. Reliever Carson Fischer (5-1) earned the win after giving up one run in 3 1/3 innings. Closer Brian Walters recorded the final six outs to notch his 11th save of the year. Louisville's Jack Brown (5-5) was tagged with the loss after allowing a go-ahead RBI single in the sixth. Miami struck first in the second inning. Tanner Smith drew a walk after an eight-pitch at-bat, and designated hitter Jake Kulikowski followed with a single through the right side, advancing Smith to third. Freshman Michael Torres then delivered an RBI single to left for the first run of the game. The Cardinals stormed back and answered in the third. Lucas Moore drew a walk and stole second, then Matt Klein advanced Moore to third with a groundout to first, and Zion Rose followed with a game-tying RBI single to center. On the next pitch, Eddie King Jr. launched a two-run homer to left-center, giving the Cardinals a 3-1 lead. After retiring the Hurricanes in order, Louisville added to its lead in the fourth as Jake Munroe belted a solo home run to left, pushing the Cardinals' advantage to 4-1. But Miami was able to fight back, scoring four runs in the fourth inning. Derek Williams reached on a fielding error by the shortstop and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Renzo Gonzalez. After a flyout, Kulikowski ripped an RBI single up the middle to score Williams, which cut the Louisville lead in half, 4-2. Michael Torres followed with a single to center, and Jake Ogden capped the rally with a 411-foot three-run homer to left field, putting the Hurricanes back into the driver's seat, 5-4. Ogden had a monstrous day at the plate, as the Homestead native went 3 for 5 with three RBI, including a momentum-shifting three-run homer in the fourth. Two innings later, King Jr. returned to the plate for the Cardinals and delivered a deep solo home run to tie the score 5-5. In the sixth, Dorian Gonzalez Jr. led off with a double to right and advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt by Williams on the next at-bat. After a Louisville pitching change, Renzo Gonzalez came through with an RBI single through the left side, bringing home Gonzalez Jr. and putting Miami back into the lead, 6-5. Miami found their much-needed insurance runs in the bottom of the seventh, powered by Daniel Cuvet. Torres got the inning going with a single through the left side, and Max Galvin followed with a base hit to right, setting the stage for Cuvet. On a 1-0 pitch, the Fort Lauderdale native turned on a fastball and launched a towering three-run homer over the left-field wall — his 18th of the season. The blast ignited the Hurricanes' dugout and pushed Miami's lead to 9-5, giving Cuvet yet another big moment in a standout sophomore campaign. Louisville chipped away in the top of the eighth. Alex Alicea led off with a double down the right field line, and Lucas Moore followed with an RBI single up the middle to bring the Cardinals within three. Moore stole second and Ryan Klein drew a walk to put two on with no outs, but Miami reliever Brain Walters remained composed, including a flyout to right, a groundout to short, and a flyout to center that helped the Hurricanes escape the jam and secure the victory.
