Los Angeles is clicking on a 15-3 run. The Dodgers are 54-18 against losing teams, including 38-15 on the road versus losing squads. The offense is fourth in the majors in runs scored and slugging, plus 11th in on-base percentage, while the pitching is Top 10 in ERA. Julio Urias got off to a slow start but is now in a groove with the Dodgers winning his last three starts. He has a 2.29 ERA in May with 17 Ks and just two walks. The Dodgers are 74-30 versus a righty starter and 21-6 as chalk of -150 or less. St. Louis is 8-14 at home with a pitching staff that is 16th in ERA and 27th in WHIP. 41-year-old Adam Wainwright (7.20 ERA) hasn't been sharp and the Cardinals are 6-11 after two or more straight home contests. The Dodgers have won five consecutive games against St. Louis and look to make it six in a row. Play Los Angeles.
