While I agree with the oddsmakers, the Rangers should be favored in Game 2, last night's extra inning affair showed how close these teams are, so I'll back the Diamondbacks again (+140). Even though there was a break before the series began, both bullpens were busy, and will be needed again, so like last night, the run total should be in double-digits, so backing the over (-120) with the O/U at 8.5 is the play. -- Zola

I think the Rangers win again. Final 6-4. Take the over on runs. The Texas offense, and not only Adolis Garcia and Corey Seager, is thriving. Merrill Kelly was able to tame Philadelphia, but I don't see that happening here. Marcus Semien has to get going too. I think the Rangers will get an early lead and hold on. -- Karabell

I'm torn on the over/under for this game, especially with extra innings last night taxing the bullpens more than usual. Initially, I regarded a Merrill Kelly-Jordan Montgomery matchup a sneaky-pitchers -- duel type -- and it might yet be -- where betting the under is the play.

But with Under 8.5 runs a "meh" -- 105 bet, I think instead taking the Diamondbacks (+122) is the correct pick, going with the greater value in what should be, like last night's, a close contest. -- Cockcroft

Under 8.5. I know it's a bit dangerous to bet Rangers games unders, especially at home, but I want to fire now that it's moved from 8.0 in Game 1 to 8.5 in Game 2. Jordan Montgomery (3-0, 2.16 ERA) and Merrill Kelly (2.65 ERA, 1.00 WHIP) have both been excellent this postseason. I wouldn't be shocked at all to see the D-Backs even the series up at two games apiece, but I do think we get a tight, lower-scoring affair in Game 2. -- Fulghum
