How many base on balls will the Brewers get?
Although the Brewers have been awarded the most base on balls (402) this season, ranking sixth in the league, they meet one of the teams that has allowed the fewest in the league in this series.
Let’s start with starter Tony Gonsolin, who averages 2.2 BB/9, although in two of his last four starts he awarded three base on balls. As for the Dodgers’ pitching staff, they are averaging just 2.45 BB per nine innings this season, the second-lowest figure in the major leagues.
Pick: 3.
JefeBet App: Liga MX Matchday 9 – Toluca vs Monterrey
How many corner kicks will Toluca take?
On the ninth matchday of the Mexican 2022 Apertura, the two best teams so far this season will meet when Toluca hosts Monterrey at the Nemesio Diez stadium.
With 17 goals scored, the “Diablos Rojos” are the second team with the most goals in the championship, just behind Monterrey, which also has one of the best defenses in the tournament.
That good defense has only allowed a maximum of eight corner kicks on two occasions, exhibiting restraint and order at the end of the field. For their part, the locals have exceeded that figure four times.
Pick: 8+.
