MLB Prop Betting – Philadelphia Phillies at St. Louis Cardinals

As every baseball bettor knows, there is always a game within each game. Having said that, the creative oddsmakers at BetUS have come up with several ingenious baseball prop bets for tonight’s matchup between the Philadelphia Phillies and St. Louis Cardinals.

Here is a look at each props bet followed by my Free MLB Betting Picks:

Total Hits in the game made by both teams combined

Over 18½ hits -120

Under 18½ hits -120

Analysis: The teams combined for 26 hits on Monday night and another 18 in last night’s contest. However, both teams have competent starters on the mound tonight in Jamie Moyer (13-11 and Adam Wainwright (13-11). Take the under here, just barely.

MLB Free Picks: Under

Which team will get the first hit in the game?

Philadelphia Phillies -200

St Louis Cardinals +150

Analysis: The Phillies have gotten on the scoreboard first in each of the series’ opening two games and should get the first hit tonight.

MLB Free Picks:Phillies

Which team will hit the 1st home run in game?

Philadelphia Phillies -140

St Louis Cardinals EV

Analysis: Again, the Phillies have been pounding the ball lately. I say go with the Phils again.

MLB Free Picks: Phillies

Total homeruns made in the game

Over 2 homeruns -140

Under 2 homeruns EV

Analysis: You’re not going to see a home run fest tonight with Moyer and Wainwright on the mound. The teams combined for five homers in Game 1 and none in Game 2. I think two sounds about right for tonight.

MLB Free Picks: Two home runs

Team with most hits in the game

Philadelphia Phillies 0 hits -120

St Louis Cardinals 0 hits -120

Analysis: I think the Cardinals will get a few more hits tonight than Philadelphia, likely, later in the game.

MLB Free Picks: Cardinals

Team with most homeruns in the game

Philadelphia Phillies 0 homeruns -120

St Louis Cardinals 0 homeruns -120

Analysis: This is a tough call, particularly since I don’t think many home runs will be hit tonight, but in the end, I say the Cardinals.
