New York (54-43) has the second-best record in the AL, while Los Angeles (62-36) has the best record in all of baseball. The Dodgers took the series opener on Friday, 2-1, before Saturday’s contest was postponed due to rain, creating a day/night doubleheader for Sunday. Yoshinobu Yamamoto (9-6, 2.85 ERA) will take the mound for L.A., countered by New York’s Cam Schlittler (9-5, 2.05 ERA), as two All-Stars will tote the rubber.
First pitch is at 7:20 p.m. ET from Yankee Stadium in New York City. Los Angeles is 7-2 versus New York since they met in the 2024 World Series. The recent Yankees vs. Dodgers odds list L.A. as the -110 favorite (risk $110 to win $100). The over/under for total runs is 8.5.

Top Dodgers vs. Yankees predictions
After 10,000 simulations of Yankees vs. Dodgers, the model is going Over 8.5 total runs. The Yanks haven’t been in the role of a home underdog too often, but these scenarios tend to lead to high-scoring games. Since the start of last year, the Over is 8-3 (73%) when the Yankees are home dogs. Additionally, while this is an elite pitching matchup, neither ace has been at his best as of late as each has been lit up in recent starts.
Yamamoto allowed 6 ER in his last start, which tied for the most in his MLB career. He’s also been easier to get a read off during night games, posting a 3.30 ERA on the season in night starts, compared to a 0.87 ERA in day games. As for Schlittler, he had a 1.62 ERA over his first 17 starts, but that’s jumped to a 4.34 mark over his last three starts. He’s also given up as many homers (six) over those last three outings as he did over the first 17 games. Given these trends, the model projects 10 combined runs, making the Over a strong pick in over/under sports betting. Get the Dodgers vs. Yankees money-line pick at SportsLine.
