Prediction: Hanshin Tigers VS Hiroshima Toyo Carp 2025-05-30
The Hanshin Tigers are taking on the Hiroshima Toyo Carp, and I've got my eyes on this one. The Tigers' pitcher, Takahiro Murakami, is looking to win his seventh game of the season, and he's got a decent track record against the Carp, with a 1-1 record and a 3.20 ERA in three starts this season.
The Hanshin Tigers are favored to win, with odds ranging from 1.67 to 1.73 across different bookmakers. The spread is set at -1.5 for the Tigers, with prices ranging from 2.3 to 2.43. The over/under is set at 5.5 or 6.0, depending on the bookmaker, with the over priced between 1.79 and 1.98.
My best bet for this game is the Hanshin Tigers on the moneyline, priced at 1.67 on BetOnline.ag. Murakami's determination to win and his decent record against the Carp make me think the Tigers have a good chance of taking this one. Plus, the Tigers' recent win against the Giants and the Carp's struggles to score runs (they were scoreless for 33 innings until Makoto Kikuchi's home run) make me think the Tigers have the momentum on their side.
So, if you're looking to place a bet, I'd recommend taking the Hanshin Tigers on the moneyline at 1.67. It's a relatively safe bet, and I think the Tigers have a good chance of coming out on top.
