Only the marquee game below carries a Vegas line right now. We're pulling those from real sportsbook pages, not guessing. Once our picks model is live, every game on the slate will get one. Until then, check watch.uristocrat.com for the full schedule.
Fourteen MLB games tonight, and one basketball game that's bigger than most of them combined. The Dodgers send their ace into Queens on FOX, and the WNBA hands its All-Star Game to ABC in primetime with Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers captaining opposite sides.
Marquee: Dodgers at Mets (7:15 PM ET, FOX)
The Dodgers have the best record in baseball at 66-38, and they're sending Yoshinobu Yamamoto to do something about their sluggish offense against a last-place Mets team. Yamamoto threw the first complete game of his career in his last outing against the Yankees, and he's already beaten this Mets lineup once this year, allowing one run over 7.2 innings back in April. Nolan McLean gets the ball for New York and has been solid himself at 7-6 with a 3.34 ERA. The Mets are 43-61 and playing out the string, but Citi Field crowds still show up for a Dodgers series.
Vegas line: Dodgers -156 moneyline, -1.5 run line (+110), total 7.5 (via ESPN).
Also tonight
- WNBA All-Star Game: Team Spoon vs. Team Coop (8:30 PM ET, ABC). Cheryl Reeve coaches Team Spoon, led by A'ja Wilson and Caitlin Clark. Becky Hammon coaches Team Coop, led by Paige Bueckers and Breanna Stewart. Honorary GMs Cynthia Cooper and Teresa Weatherspoon drafted the rosters, and this is the one night a year the league's biggest names share a court instead of playing against each other.
- Yankees at Phillies (6:05 PM ET). Two teams with 56-plus wins meeting in Philadelphia. The Yankees are 58-45 and rolling, the Phillies 56-48 and trying to hold serve at home in a series that doubles as a measuring stick for October.
- Braves at Orioles (7:05 PM ET). Atlanta owns the best record in the NL East at 61-42 and keeps rolling out one strong start after another. Baltimore's Brandon Young has quietly been one of the better rookie arms in the league at 8-2.
- Cubs at Pirates (6:40 PM ET). Paul Skenes takes the mound for Pittsburgh, still one of the most electric arms in baseball even on a 53-51 team. Chicago is 58-45 and fighting to stay ahead in a crowded NL wild card race.
- Mariners at Rangers (7:15 PM ET, FOX). An AL West game between two teams within a game of each other in the loss column, with Seattle's Bryan Woo against Texas veteran Nathan Eovaldi.
Baseball's stretch run and the WNBA's showcase night land on the same evening. Take your pick of Yamamoto trying to out-pitch a last-place lineup or watching half the WNBA's best players share a locker room for one night only.
