Here are our favorite No Runs First Inning plays for Saturday’s slate.

Saturday’s Best No Runs First Inning (NRFI) Bets

Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook

Atlanta Braves vs. Cincinnati Reds

Pitching matchup: Jared Schuster vs. Graham Ashcraft

Who would have thought the Braves and Reds would be must-see TV? Yesterday we saw a combined 21 runs scored, and we could see something similar today.

Atlanta came out hot, scoring five runs in the first inning, while the Reds did not shy away as they scored two runs in the 2nd and third innings. 

This series has the making of a slugfest, and the Reds have no reason to back down as they are the hottest team in the MLB, winning 12 straight games.

Both starting pitchers have an xERA over 4.90 and a SIERA over 5.00, the perfect recipe for runs early and often.

Bet: YRFI -170 


Milwaukee Brewers vs. Cleveland Guardians

Pitching matchup: Freddy Peralta vs. Tanner Bibee

These two teams may be the hardest to figure out as they are two of the most inconsistent teams in the MLB.

Both lineups show flashes of being great, with the Brewers being led by Christian Yelich and Rowdy Tellez, while Jose Ramirez and Josh Naylor lead the Guardians. Both teams have yet to figure out how to do it every day.

Today’s starting pitchers are nothing special but have the opportunity to prey on some weaker lineups.

Peralta and Bibee have a combined NRFI record of 19-5

Bet: NRFI -115
