Tuesday marks the final day of April baseball in 2024, and we break down our favorite home run prop bets to finish out the month. Which pitcher-batter matchups will best lend themselves to dingers on Tuesday evening? Here are our best bets. All odds are courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.
Best home run bets: Tuesday, April 30
Shohei Ohtani vs. Diamondbacks (+265)
Ohtani had two hits against Arizona in the first game of the series, and has seven homers thus far this season. Jordan Montgomery, the D-Backs’ starting pitcher on Tuesday evening, gave up seven hits and three earned runs in his latest start. Of the Dodgers’ lineup, Ohtani is the best bet for a home run in this matchup.
Juan Soto vs. Orioles (+340)
The Yankees outfielder already has seven homers under his belt this season, and goes up against Orioles starting pitcher Dean Kremer on Tuesday evening. Four of Soto’s seven homers have been on road trips, and Kremer has let up four homers in his last three starts. I like the odds to see Soto rip one out of the park tonight.
Elly De La Cruz vs. Padres (+425)
Yu Darvish takes the mound for the Padres in the second game of the series. The Reds won 5-2 on Monday, with De La Cruz hitting one out of the park to draw his season total to eight. De La Cruz has already had two instances this season in which he hit home runs in back-to-back games, and we could see a third instance on Tuesday evening. Darvish has given up two home runs in three starts this month.
