Best No Runs First Inning (NRFI) Bets for Today

Here are our top picks and predictions for no runs first inning (NRFI) today.

Detroit Tigers vs. Cleveland Guardians

Eduardo Rodriguez vs. Peyton Battenfield

Eduardo Rodriguez may be one of the biggest surprises of the 2023 season; He is 2-3 with a 1.81 ERA. He has only given up more than two earned runs in two of his seven starts.

Cleveland has struggled against opposing southpaws in 2023, ranking 28th in ISO, 25th in BABIP, and 27th in wRC+.

Overall the Tigers’ offense hasn’t been much better. Despite a recent hot streak for the team’s lineup, Detroit still ranks in the bottom third in all major hitting categories.

Bet: NRFI -155

Texas Rangers vs. Seattle Mariners

Dane Dunning vs. Luis Castillo

Dane Dunning, usually a reliever for the Rangers, made his first start of the season last week against the Angels. He went five innings and gave up two hits with no runs while striking out three. 

Today he gets to face a Mariners team that has been underperforming. In 2023 the Mariners rank at the bottom of the league in all advance-hitting metrics like ISO, wOBA, and wRC+. 

Their pitching is what has been keeping them afloat. The Seattle Mariners have the lowest xFIP in the MLB and have the 3rd lowest team ERA. Leading the M’s pitching attack is Ace Luis Castillo. Castillo is 2-0 with a 2.38 ERA and should tame a Rangers’ lineup that has scored the second-most runs in the league.

Bet: NRFI -140
