 MLB: Detroit Tigers -1.5 - 1 Unit (-120) - Win

 NHL: Washington Capitals to win - 1 Unit (+110) - Win 

Let’s dive a little deeper into yesterday's action, starting off in Colorado where the Detroit Tigers dominated the Colorado Rockies 10–2 in the first game of their doubleheader at Coors Field, comfortably covering our -1.5 run line selection. Casey Mize delivered a strong performance, pitching six innings and allowing just one run while striking out eight. Spencer Torkelson led the offensive charge with three RBIs, and Andy Ibáñez contributed two hits and two RBIs. The Tigers' offense exploded early, and their pitching staff kept the Rockies in check throughout the game.

In our NHL selection, the Washington Capitals secured a 3–1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference second-round series, evening the series at 1–1. Goaltender Logan Thompson was instrumental in the win, making 27 saves, including 16 in the third period. Tom Wilson led the offense with a goal and an assist, helping the Capitals bounce back after their overtime loss in Game 1. The series now shifts to Raleigh, North Carolina, for Game 3.

OKC -5

Analysis:

Oklahoma City’s dominant 149-106 blowout last game clearly demonstrated their strength, and the result could have been even worse. While Nikola Jokic is capable of bouncing back from an off night, Denver desperately needs more production from its supporting cast—at least one or two of their key role players like Aaron Gordon, Christian Braun, Michael Porter Jr., or Russell Westbrook—to step up and make a significant impact.
