00:00The brighter the lights, the bigger the stakes.
00:06Hunt or be hunted.
00:10Know your prey.
00:14This is a whole new jungle.
00:17This is The Lion's Share.
00:21Brought to you by BetMGM.
00:25Well, the Pirates won the game 1-0 for Skeens.
00:28They got out of the bases loaded, jammed Carver high.
00:31I can't even believe it.
00:32Honestly, I almost had a stroke.
00:35I couldn't believe it either.
00:37But they do get the job done.
00:381-0.
00:39A victory and a win for Skeens.
00:42So, congratulations.
00:43He's what now?
00:45He's 6-0 now.
00:4711 strikeouts today.

01:15You won't be disappointed.
01:16It's time for The Lion's Share.
01:19Brought to you by BetMGM and more taters.
01:23Salty taters.
01:25I know you hit one last night.
01:27At least one of them cashed.
01:29We did.
01:30We got saved late night by Willie Adamas in that Brewer-Pirate game at plus 375.
01:36So, that was helpful.
01:37Softened the blow.
01:38But we'll get back on the jump tonight, Scotty.
01:40We've got another six-pack for you.
01:42Even though it's a little bit of an abbreviated slate, we have found some spots.
01:46We will try to get some tater time action.
01:48Why don't we start at the trop for the Yankees and the Rays tonight.
01:53Now, Nestor Cortez is a much different pitcher away from Yankee Stadium.
01:58He's great at home, Scotty, but he flat out stinks on the road.
02:02And you've got to hear some of these numbers against these Tampa Bay hitters.
02:06And we're going to go with Yandy Diaz tonight as our guy at plus 475.
02:10Why?
02:1112 for 30 with three home runs off of Nasty Nestor in his career.
02:16But honestly, I think you kind of have a pick of just about anyone if you wanted to, Scotty.
02:20A Rosarena, two homers off of Cortez.
02:23Peredes, two homers off of Cortez.
02:25Rosario, two homers off of Cortez.
02:28Lau has a homer off of Cortez.
02:30They have guys all up and down the lineup.
02:32I get it.
02:33The Rays and the Yankees play each other a lot.
02:35But these guys see Cortez very well, especially at the trop, Scotty.
02:39We'll go with Diaz tonight.
02:40Nice price, 475.
02:42I like Diaz.
02:43I also like a shekel on each of the others that you mentioned.
02:48The entire lineup, I'm going to put down 20 bucks on every guy across the board in their lineup tonight
02:56against your boy NotSoNasty on the road.
03:00NotSoNasty on the road.
03:02Next we'll go to Pharrell Adelphia, Dodgers and the Phillies.
03:04We were just talking about it as the Phillies have hit a lot of long balls the last couple nights.
03:08But we're going to go on the other side for this and go to the Dodgers.
03:12Aaron Nola is on the mound for Pharrell Adelphia.
03:15He gives up a ton.
03:16Every year he always gives up long balls.
03:18Usually they're solos.
03:19That's okay.
03:2016 so far this year.
03:22But Freddie Freeman has the most success off of Nola.
03:2617 for 71 and two homers in his career.
03:30Has a bunch of extra base hits off of him as well.
03:33Plus 375 for Freddie Freeman tonight down at the bank.
03:38I like that.
03:39And Smith hits one every night now.
03:42Yeah.
03:43Smith has been very good lately.
03:45Smith does have a homer in his career off of Nola.
03:47He's 2 for 14.
03:49So not a lot of success.
03:50But he does have a home run off of him in his career.
03:53So you can keep him in mind too.
03:55Next, late night.
03:56We'll go a little chalky with this one.
03:58But this guy's red hot, Scotty.
04:00And that is Marcel Ozuna.
04:01Had a homer last night for the Braves against Brandon Fott in his career.
04:06He has homered off of him.
04:07He got named to the Home Run Derby as well.
04:09Plus 290 for the Big Bear Ozuna tonight out in the desert.
04:13Yeah.
04:14And they're playing well all of a sudden.
04:17He's hitting the ball deep and going to be in the home run, as you said,
04:21in Globe next week.
04:23So it'll be fun to see him.
04:24Your next pick has also been bopping lately.
04:28Hit two the other day.
04:29Who's that?
04:31Yeah.
04:32Cal Raleigh has gotten very hot for the Seattle Mariners.
04:34And we have this kid starting for the Angels tonight making his debut,
04:39Jack Kokonowicz, if you can actually pronounce this guy's name properly,
04:44Scotty.
04:45So this kid's coming in for the Angels.
04:46Hard-throwing right-hander.
04:48Cal Raleigh on the left-hand side.
04:50Has more power on the left-hand side.
04:52He's got a couple homers already this week.
04:54We'll take the Mariners and Raleigh at plus 220 tonight to go long ball.
04:58Now, Louis Castillo's going for Seattle tonight, Scotty.
05:02He's given up a lot of homers, especially to the Angels.
05:06He's given up 15 this year.
05:07Unfortunately, Renifo is on the IL.
05:10He destroys Castillo.
05:12But he is not going to be there tonight.
05:14But we'll go with Raleigh in this game.
05:16Yeah.
05:17I don't think the Angels are hitting home runs tonight at all.
05:22So I'm with you on Raleigh.
05:24We'll just run with that.
05:26Thanks.
05:27We'll run with that.
05:28We'll go to Baltimore next for the Orioles and the Cubbies.
05:31Who else is hot right now?
05:33How about Ian Happ?
05:34Three homers in the last week.
05:36You've got Suarez on the mound for the Orioles tonight.
05:38He's given up four and 65, but the four have come very recently.
05:42Plus 475 for Happ.
05:44He did it at Camden two nights ago.
05:46Let's do it again tonight.
05:48I mean, just the other day he hit it from both sides of the plate.
05:52The guy's been smacking home runs all over the place.
05:55So I like that bet as well.
05:57And really, this has been the most stunning series in baseball this week,
06:03that they have gone to Camden and taken the first two games.
06:06The first game they put nine on them, and then they beat them Imanaga four zips.
06:11So what the Cubs are doing to the Orioles right now is unheard of.
06:16It certainly is.
06:18They'll go for the sweep tonight down at Camden.
06:21Next, I'll finish off the six-pack in Houston.
06:24Marlins and the Astros getting together.
06:26I'm not going to lie, Scotty.
06:27I originally had my eyes the other day on Jordan Alvarez for this game,
06:32but he's not in the lineup tonight.
06:34He left with that hip tightness last night.
06:37And with this, Munoz on the mound for Miami.
06:39How about this guy, Scotty?
06:41He's allowed 15 homers this year in 44 innings.
06:46That is not a good ratio.
06:48I usually give you 15 homers in 70 or 80 innings.
06:51In 44, that's embarrassing.
06:53John Singleton is where we're going tonight for the Astros.
06:57A big price, plus 675.
06:59He has got most of his damages done at home and against right-handed pitching.
07:04Well, we got a guy who gives up taters.
07:06So we're going to go to Singleton tonight.
07:07He's in the cleanup spot, plus 675.
07:10Yeah, and I like Tucker Pena and Bregman, too.
07:13I mean, this guy gives up home runs.
07:16And what is it, 9-1 last night?
07:19They kicked their ass.
07:20I bet them on the over and the run line hit both bats on PharrellOnTheBench.com.
07:25So I'm going to go again.
07:27They're going to hit more than Singleton.
07:28I like Singleton and Moore.
07:30Singleton and Moore.
07:32Why not?
07:33Pena's price is pretty good, too.
07:34He's up there in the 6s and 7s, as well, if you'd like to get involved with him.
07:38All right, so there's your six-pack.
07:39Diaz, Freeman, Ozuna, Cal Raleigh, Ian Happ, John Singleton.
07:44Our big homer six-pack on the lion's share brought to you by BetMGM.
07:48I have this for you also from yesterday.
07:51I never got to those World Series odds for you.
07:54So, of course, I bring them back to you today.
07:56And the Dodgers are still at the top.
07:59Now, the Dodgers are at the top, Scotty, and the Phillies are second.
08:02And the Phillies have been beating the Dodgers up the last couple of days.
08:05How long until that flips?
08:09Well, look, how many times do they got to beat them to get respect?
08:13You know, I think they are going to win the pennant.
08:17I really do.
08:18They got it all, the hitting, the pitching, defense.
08:23They got it all, except my buddy says that Turner sucks at short.
08:27But, look, I mean, look at the odds for the Guards and the Astros.
08:30Now, I know the Guardians don't win World Series.
08:33Fair enough.
08:35But this team has been unbelievable this year.
08:38They win a lot.
08:39And look at those odds.
08:40And the Astros, I still think, are going to take the West.
08:44They win every night now.
08:45It's just a matter of time before Seattle screws this up.
08:49And usually, for Seattle, it will be on the road that they screw it up.
08:53And the Astros will pass them in the second half, go to the playoffs.
08:57And look at those odds right now.
09:01Getting good numbers for them, that's for sure.
09:02It still boggles my mind that the Yankees are the top team in the American
09:06League up there, plus 550.
09:08But, like you said, lots of good contenders right there behind them.
09:12So, there you go.
09:13Tater Six-Pack and the World Series odds for you today on The Lion's Share,
09:18brought to you by BetMGM.
09:19And I will have all of tonight's games for you later as well.
09:23We have some others that we have to go through and all the numbers.
09:27Yeah, I can't wait.
09:28We got to hit the night games, hit the bats.
09:30We're going to talk basketball with Coach Young coming up as we continue to
09:35look back at the USA's win over Canada last night and what's going on starting
09:40Friday in the Summer League in Vegas.
09:42We'll be right back.
