MLB The marquee matchup is Atlanta Braves at New York Mets, with Atlanta riding baseball's best record into Citi Field looking to keep the heart of the order rolling against a Mets club fighting to stay relevant this season. Odds have New York as a slight home favorite, but Atlanta's lineup can leave the yard in a hurry if a Mets starter doesn't have his best stuff. Also keep an eye on Milwaukee Brewers at San Francisco Giants, where the Brewers' 66-39 mark is quietly the second-best in the league and a strong bullpen night could set up another road walk-off bid late.
WNBA Circle Indiana Fever at Seattle Storm on ESPN, where the Fever are on the road as 8.5-point favorites and looking to keep pace as the East's third seed jockeying with New York and Connecticut, so it's got real playoff-positioning stakes. Also keep one eye on Toronto Tempo at Minnesota Lynx, where the 22-6 Lynx have been putting on an absolute clinic all season and should hang a big number on the expansion Tempo. If you want buckets and blowout math, New York Liberty at Los Angeles Sparks is the closest thing to a coin flip on the board, with New York only favored by 4.5.
