Best YRFI/NRFI Bets Today: No Run First Inning Bets
St. Louis Cardinals at Washington Nationals YRFI (-125)
The matchup between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Washington Nationals presents an opportunity for a YRFI play. MacKenzie Gore and Jordan Montgomery are the pitchers in this game. While Gore has an impressive strikeout rate, the Cardinals lineup has shown resilience against pitchers like him. Montgomery, on the other hand, has a decent track record but struggles with consistency. With the Cardinals’ aggressive approach at home, there is a high likelihood of a run being scored in the first inning of this game.
Toronto Blue Jays at Miami Marlins YRFI (+100)
In the game between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Miami Marlins, we have another YRFI play. Eury Perez takes the mound for the Marlins, boasting a solid strikeout rate but showing signs of leveling out in that category of late. The Blue Jays, despite their up-and-down performance, have a challenging lineup that can pose problems for Perez. On the other side, Yusei Kikuchi’s statistics are unremarkable, leaving room for the Marlins to capitalize. This matchup sets the stage for an exciting first inning with a good chance of a run being scored.
Los Angeles Dodgers at Los Angeles Angels NRFI (-110)
When the Los Angeles Dodgers face the Los Angeles Angels, we turn our attention to an NRFI play. Reid Detmers will be on the mound for the Angels, facing the formidable lineup of the Dodgers. Detmers has shown promise in his young career, and Clayton Kershaw is a reliable and experienced pitcher. Kershaw’s impressive stats, combined with the Dodgers’ strong defensive capabilities, make it unlikely for the Angels to score a run in the first inning. This NRFI play allows you to rely on the skills of these two pitchers.
