NC Dinos vs SSG Landers 5/3/24 Pick: NC Dinos
For this game here we do think it will be more of a pitchers duel than an offensive one. Both of these teams are putting a better starter on the mound compared to the rest of the pitching staff and with the pitching from NC overall it should keep the Landers team in check for the entire game. Look for the Dinos offense to do enough to secure the win in the game here.
