MLB Wednesday best bets: Expect fireworks in Arizona

The Oakland Athletics and Toronto Blue Jays won Tuesday's games. The Athletics have won three straight games and are looking to extend their winning streak against Anibal Sanchez and the Washington Nationals. James Kaprielian should be able to keep the Nationals to a manageable number. Washington sits 21st in wOBA versus right-handed pitchers over the past three weeks. The team with the better record is the Athletics.

Philadelphia Phillies and Arizona Diamondbacks have combined for 35 runs in the first two games of this series. The game on Wednesday is a toss-up between Bailey Falter and Tommy Henry. Arizona is hitting well and should score a lot. Philadelphia is in a good spot to do the same. The team that has mashed left-handed hitters is ranked fourth in wOBA over the last two months and first in August.
