## Resource

The Diamondbacks and Athletics are locked in a heated rematch after splitting their first two post-All-Star break games, with both teams sitting at 2-2 in the series. Arizona pulled off a wild 8-7 comeback win before falling 5-2, while the A’s have been a rollercoaster—crushed 23-4 one night, then smacking 15-1 the next—with MLB’s best batting average despite shaky pitching. Arizona’s offense has been explosive since the break, but their defense and pitching have been inconsistent. Tonight’s game sees the Diamondbacks favored (-137) with Athletics at +14, and a projected total of 9.5 runs. Rookie Kohl Drake makes his MLB debut for Arizona against Jack Perkins. Experts predict the D-backs to cover the spread and the game to go under the total—another high-stakes, back-and-forth showdown.
