We've cashed a same game parlay each of the last 2 days, so let's see if we can make it 3 straight! While every other series wrapped up on Sunday, the Rockies and Brewers are continuing on Monday to complete a full 4-game series. It's been an exciting 1 already, with 13 innings needed to decide the opener. There was nearly even a 9th-inning comeback in yesterday's game. There's been plenty of runs so far, which shouldn't come as a surprise. There's several big sluggers on both sides, which also provides more markets to target in Tuesday's series finale. Al ong with this same game parlay, be sure to check out our thoughts on the side and total for all of today's games.

Let's take a closer look at each leg of our same game parlay.
Rockies ML (+140)
We're going to start things off with some serious value right off the bat. Just as this series started out strong, we'll do the same. The Rockies pushed the Brewers to the brink in that game and can fully finish off the upset today. They're being a bit disrespected at this number given the matchup. It's going to be a battle of lefties on the mound, which is great news for Colorado. They've been the best lineup against such pitching virtually the entire year. They're currently holding off the Braves and Yankees for that top spot, which are 2 incredible lineups. Now that they'll be hitting a lefty that isn't Dodger Clayton Kershaw, they should be able to take advantage of the opportunity.
Milwaukee's Aaron Ashby hasn't faced the Rockies in his short 2-year career, but he did just face another NL West team. The lefty was pulled after just a single inning against the Giants. That game ultimately ended in a 9-5 loss. The Brewers on the other hand are an interesting lineup. While they have some big names, they are actually the 6th-worst team against lefties this season. That's what they'll see with Colorado's Kyle Freeland. Unlike Ashby, he's coming off a win against an NL West team. He just led the Rockies to an 8-5 win against a great Padres team, and he's now helped defeat San Diego 3 times since the start of June. They won those games by a combined score of 24-11. If Colorado can more than double up on the Padres, they can pull off this upset against the Brew crew.
