Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction

I’m on the Dodgers here. Ohtani has been outstanding up to this point and the Dodgers are finally backing him up offensively and I don’t expect that to change against Jared Jones. The Pirates are just in a slump right now and I look for them to get beat on once again. Give me the Dodgers.
