Should we watch the Phillies and Dodgers (MLB odds) or McCain versus Obama (political betting odds)? Luckily at the international headquarters of OffshoreInsiders.com we have a sports bar like television set-up, but the NLCS game 5 is the only must-watch TV. We will skip the Nick Wallenda stunt on the Today Show but we will read about it on TheDailyBeast.com.
Here is the official sports betting preview of Game 5 from Chavez Ravine. The NLCS odds have Cole Hamels as a 117 favorite over Chad Billingsley with a total of 7.5 under -125.
Hamels has a .274 OBP against on the road and .268 overall. Chad Billingsley is much better at home than on the road. In LA, he has a 10-4 personal mark with a 2.95 ERA and .304 OBP against.
The Dodgers are 6-1 following an off day and 9-2 their last 11 following a day off. They are 13-3 their last 16 at home both to left-handed starting pitching and at home to teams with a winning record. They are 34-13 this year after two straight games of committing no errors.
The Phillies have won 7-of-8 overall in the series. However, the home team has won 12-of-13 meetings in the series this year.
