The NLCS continues Friday with the Los Angeles Dodgers looking to complete their sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers in Game 4.
I have compiled my two best Brewers vs. Dodgers home run props for Friday, October 17, featuring William Contreras and Freddie Freeman.
Read on for my free MLB picks for tonight.
Brewers home run pick
William Contreras (+400 at Caesars)
Right-hander Shohei Ohtani takes the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers. While Ohtani is a difficult pitcher to face, he has surrendered a home run in two of his past four home starts.
If anyone on the Milwaukee Brewers is going to take him deep, it’s likely to be William Contreras. He has served as the Brewers’ emotional leader this postseason and is one of just three players to homer in multiple playoff games.
Contreras hits right-handers particularly well. During the regular season, 14 of his 17 home runs came against right-handed pitching.
Dodgers home run pick
Freddie Freeman (+475 at Caesars)
The Brewers’ pitching situation remains unclear, as they’re likely to throw anyone available with their backs against the wall and their starting rotation depleted due to injuries and usage.
Regardless of who is on the mound, the Dodgers’ Freddie Freeman can hit one out of the park.
His splits were nearly identical this season, regardless of pitcher handedness. He posted a .506 SLG and .855 OPS against left-handers, and a .500 SLG with an .874 OPS against right-handers.
Freeman has also been Los Angeles’ best hitter in this series. Through the first three games, he owns a .667 SLG and a 1.024 OPS with a homer in Game 1.
