We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Sunday, including action from MLS and MLB. Two picks are taken from each sport and a winning ticket would give us a nice payout with odds of +1160 at DraftKings. Let’s break down each of these plays.
MLB: Philadelphia Phillies -1.5 (-125) vs Washington Nationals, 12:05 pm ET
The Phillies have remained one of the league’s hottest teams, winning 5 straight games which includes the first 3 games of this series against the Nationals. They will have a great chance to complete the sweep on Sunday afternoon as Zach Eflin takes the mound looking to continue his dominance.
Philadelphia’s bats have finally seemed to awaken, and they should provide plenty of run support in this game as they face rookie Jackson Tetreault. Tetreault made his MLB debut against the Braves earlier in the week and it did not go well, as he surrendered 7 earned runs on 9 hits. He is also backed up by one of the league’s worst bullpens, so the Phillies should pounce on this Washington pitching staff and comfortably complete the sweep on the run line.

MLB: St. Louis Cardinals vs Boston Red Sox ML (-150), 1:35 pm ET
The Red Sox will rely on Nick Pivetta on Sunday to continue his dominance on the mound, as he’s been Boston’s most reliable starter over the past two months. After a tough month of April to open the season, Pivetta has rebounded nicely with a 2.11 ERA in May and then a 2.85 ERA in June. He has given up 1 or fewer earned runs in 6 of his past 8 starts, and his 3.09 ERA at home suggests that he should have success in this game against the Cardinals.
This Boston lineup has been red-hot lately and will be eager to jump on rookie Andre Pallante for the Cardinals. Given the significant pitching advantage that the Red Sox have, look for them to win big on Sunday and take the series.

MLS: Inter Miami CF vs Atlanta United FC – Both teams to score and Over 2.5 total goals (+100), 3:00 pm ET
Atlanta United is a heavy favorite and will likely win Sunday’s contest with Inter Miami, but there should be goals from both sides. Both teams have scored in 6 of their 8 career meetings and Atlanta has failed to keep a clean sheet in 8 straight matches. Although the hosts should roll on Sunday, Inter will probably score at least once — likely ending with a 2-1 or 3-1 scoreline.

MLS: Sporting Kansas City vs Nashville SC ML and Over 1.5 total goals (+110), 6:00 pm ET
Nashville has been rolling on all cylinders, going unbeaten in their last 5 matches and posting a 5-1-2 record in their last 7 games. Sporting KC has seen over 1.5 goals in 8 of its last 10 losses and Nashville should take care of business with a few goals in this one. Since their long streak of away games to start the year, the hosts have settled into the season and should continue their momentum on Sunday.
