The Los Angeles Dodgers (9-2) and Toronto Blue Jays (4-7) wrap up their three-game series Wednesday afternoon at Rogers Centre, with Los Angeles aiming to complete the sweep. After a dominant 14-2 win in Monday’s opener and a controlled 4-1 victory in Game 2, a matchup we previewed yesterday, the Dodgers now carry a five-game winning streak into the finale.
Toronto, meanwhile, finds itself in a difficult spot. The Blue Jays have dropped six straight games and will look to avoid being swept at home before heading into their next series. Despite keeping things closer on Tuesday night, the margin for error remains slim against a Dodgers team that continues to impose their will against the rest of the MLB, making this an intriguing spot on the baseball betting slate.

Dodgers vs. Blue Jays Current Odds
Hard Rock Bet Sportsbook lists the Dodgers as a road favorite once again in the series finale:
- Moneyline: Dodgers -160, Blue Jays +130
- Run Line: Dodgers -1.5 (+105), Blue Jays +1.5 (-125)
- Total (Runs): Over 7.5 (-110), Under 7.5 (-110)
Los Angeles has continued to dictate the pace in this series, backed by both timely hitting and strong pitching performances. Yoshinobu Yamamoto set the tone in Game 2, working six innings while allowing just one run, and the Dodgers’ offense did enough early to secure the win. It’s been a consistent formula during their current streak.
Ohtani vs. Cease Pitching Matchup & Game Outlook
Now the spotlight shifts to Shohei Ohtani, who makes his second start of the season. His first outing on the mound was dominant, featuring six shutout innings with minimal traffic and solid strikeout numbers. With no change in his NL MVP odds (-165) and the Dodgers still holding firm as World Series favorites (+225) at Hard Rock Bet Sportsbook, Ohtani remains at the center of both this game and the broader MLB landscape.
Toronto turns to Dylan Cease in hopes of stopping the skid. The right-hander has been a bright spot early in his Blue Jays tenure, posting a sub-3.00 ERA with impressive strikeout numbers through his first two starts after signing a long-term deal in the offseason. This will be his toughest test yet, however, facing a Dodgers lineup that has consistently applied pressure throughout this series.
Offensively, the Blue Jays have struggled to keep pace. Even in Tuesday’s loss, where Kevin Gausman delivered a respectable outing, Toronto managed just one run. Generating more production will be critical if they want to avoid being swept heading into an off day before their next series.
