Shohei Ohtani has lowest odds ever at ESPN BET to homer Tuesday vs. Rockies

Oddsmakers like Shohei Ohtani’s chances of going deep on Tuesday night in Denver. 

The Dodgers’ slugger is +110 to go yard, which is a number never seen in the short history of ESPN BET. 

Those are the shortest odds to hit a home run ever offered by the sportsbook, according to ESPN BET spokesman Gordon Stevenson. 

Per Stevenson, the previous low was Aaron Judge at +115 to hit a dinger on May 10 against the Athletics in Sacramento. 

Judge went on to homer twice in that contest.

Ohtani will take his cuts in the most hitter-friendly ballpark in baseball – Coors Field. 

In 76 career plate appearances at Coors Field, Ohtani has hit .397/.453/.765 with six home runs. 

One of the most homer-prone pitchers in baseball, Austin Gomber, will take the mound for the Rockies, which is another thing working in Ohtani’s favor. 

Gomber has allowed 14 homers in just 54 ⅔ innings, which comes out to a whopping 2.30 home runs allowed per nine innings, the second-highest rate in baseball among pitchers with at least 50 innings on the mound this season. 

Ohtani comes into the game on a hot stretch, even by his standards. 

This month, he’s hitting .397/.521/.741 with five home runs across 16 games.
