Best Bet Major League Baseball NLCS Game 1 Thursday LA Dodgers (Lowe) (+135) @ Philadelphia Phillies (Hamels) (-145) (8:15PM ET) (FOX)
The early money has been on the Dodgers in game 1 and its hard to argue. Derek Lowe has been superb down the stretch giving up 2 earned runs or less over his last 10 appearances including the postseason. The Dodgers also sport one of the best bullpens in baseball. You also have to factor the Manny factor because LA is a totally different team with Ramirez in the lineup. LA put up 20 runs in 3 games against a 97 win Chicago Cub team while allowing a mere 2 runs per ballgame against them. The Phillies only hit .205 against Derrick Lowe and he is 3-0 against Philadelphia in his last 4 starts. Despite overall solid numbers on the season Phillies starter Cole Hamels has logged in over 227 innings this season, which is a career high. The Phillies bats struggled against Milwaukee Brewers pitching going only 5 of 31 with runners in scoring position. Plus the LA bats are much more disciplined at the plate and will force Hamels to work by upping his pitch count to set up the damage in the middle innings. Play on the underdog here.
Your Best Bet for Thursday Major League Baseball is playing the LA Dodgers at +135 against the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 1 of the NLCS.
Selection: LA Dodgers +135

Manny is a fat slob. I love how he flips the bat watched his "coucg" double fly to the wall as he lumbers towards first. then....OOPS! it stayed in the park!. Yet he cathces a routine fly ball in left field and Joe Buck is li8ke " WOW! Look at Mannys HUSTLE!"

Wow, you're an idiot. That "cheat wall" is the exact same location and height for the Phillies as it is for the Dodgers.
Phillies are clearly the better team. End of story.

Dude. L.A wins in 5! Phillies don't have the pitching to defeat the Blue bandits...that's just the facts.
Manny was mashing last night and almost unleashed the homer early in the game. lucky for the Philly fans that wall is set up to take away homers from the mashers! DUH!
