We’ll take it.

Here are a couple of same-game parlays to consider for tonight’s slate of games.

Arizona Diamondbacks at Oakland Athletics

Leg 1: Ketel Marte 1+ Hit (-270)
Leg 2: Dominic Fletcher 1+ Hit (+110)
Leg 3: Corbin Carroll 2+ Hits (+210)

The Arizona Diamondbacks will take on Drew Rucinski of the Oakland Athletics. Over the last 30 days, Rucinski has had a 6.57 xFIp with 8.2% of strikeouts and 12.3% of walks. He’s been dreadful, but mostly against lefties.

Lefties have hit a .564 wOBA and ISO of .300 over their last 29 plate appearances against Rucsinki.

So I’m going to add three lefties to this parlay.

Ketel Marte is a switch-hitter but will be batting from the left side. He’s hit a .204 ISO and wOBA of .360 against his last 63 righties. Marte has also smacked over 23% of line drives in that time frame against righties.

Dominic Fletcher, another lefty, has hit a .208 ISO and wOBA of .589 in his last 27 plate appearances against righties. Fletcher has struck out just 7.4% of the time against righties in that time frame, so he’ll put the ball in play.

Finally, Corbin Carroll has been on fire against righties. Carroll has smacked a .296 ISO and wOBA of .443 while hitting 28.2% of line drives against righties in his last 65 plate appearances.

Look for Arizona’s lefties to take advantage of Rucsinki.

Parlay Odds: +408

Philadelphia Phillies at San Francisco Giants

Leg 1: LaMonte Wade Jr. Over 1.5 Total Bases (+160)
Leg 2: Casey Schmitt Over 1.5 Total Bases (+120)
Leg 3: Alex Wood Over 3.5 Ks (-148)

The Philadelphia Phillies will pitch left-hander Bailey Falter. He’s got a 5.38 xFIP over the last 30 days and has only struck out 17.8% of batters in that time frame.

Falter has also allowed more line drives than ground balls earned and has given up plenty of extra-base hits.

His last 21 lefties faced have hit a .505 wOBA and ISO of .300. Meanwhile, his last 69 righties have hit a .190 ISO.

San Francisco doesn’t have the most stacked lineup against lefties, but LaMonte Wade Jr., who is also a lefty, is hitting a .294 ISO and wOBA of .394 against his last 21 lefties faced.

Meanwhile, Casey Schmitt is offensively making a name for himself, especially against lefties. In a small sample size, he’s hit 37.5% of line drives against lefties over the last 30 days.

On the flip side, Alex Wood will man the mound for the Giants. He’s struck out 25% of batters over the last 30 days and will pitch against a projected Phillies lineup that has struck out 26.3% of the time. Philadelphia has five batters striking out at least 26.7% of the time against righties over the last month. Wood will get at least four strikeouts.

Parlay Odds: +894
