There's only one postseason game on the slate tonight.
It's Game 2 of the NLCS between the Diamondbacks and Phillies.
But although there's one game, I wouldn't worry too much. The Phillies continue to hit moonshots at home in the postseason. They'll have another opportunity to do that tonight with Merrill Kelly on the mound.
We hit on Nick Castellanos yesterday. Who will cash in for us tonight?
Here are three players that can hit a home run in tonight's game.
October 17 Best MLB Home Run Props
Kyle Schwarber to Hit a Home Run (+280) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Kyle Schwarber led off the Phillies' offense with a solo shot in Game 1 of the NLCS. He's hitting a .225 ISO and wOBA of .315 against his last 45 righties.
He'll take on Merrill Kelly, who has allowed a .222 ISO to his last 41 lefties tonight. Kelly has also given up a .155 ISO to 374 batters this season.
He's got a low strikeout rate against lefties and has allowed 34.5% of line drives to lefties over the last 30 days.
Schwarber has a chance to earn another homer tonight.
Bryce Harper to Hit a Home Run (+360) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The same goes for lefty Bryce Harper. Harper has hit a .469 ISO and wOBA of .528 against his last 43 righties.
He'll take on Kelly, who has struggled against lefties. Kelly has allowed 62.1% of hard contact to lefties in the last 30 days. He's also earned just 5.2% of swinging strikes against lefties.
He's not fooling left-handed batters, despite his solid performance against the Dodgers last week.
Back Harper to go deep.
Corbin Carroll to Hit a Home Run (+500) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Corbin Carroll will lead things off for the Diamondbacks tonight. He's hit a .348 ISO and wOBA of .495 against his last 54 righties.
He'll take on Aaron Nola of the Phillies, who has been incredible over the last month.
However, let's not forget about Nola's full season stats. Nola allowed a .193 ISO to 385 lefties this season. He also allowed 28.9% of fly balls and induced just 41.1% of ground balls against lefties.
So while Nola has been sensational recently, lefties have more of an advantage. With Carroll hitting righties at a very high rate, there's a chance he can unload on one and send one to the seats in the outfield.
