Cleveland Guardians at Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction

Heading into Sunday’s interleague final between Cleveland and Los Angeles, the Dodgers are the betting favorite. LA pitcher Andrew Heaney will be taking the mound for the first time since April 17th but was excellent in his first two outings. On the other side, the Guardians have won 4 straight games with Shane Bieber as the starter. Led by another strong outing from Bieber, I see Cleveland picking up the win.
