Swinging for the fences is a common term heard not only on the diamond but in various parts of life. Underdog is giving new users a chance to swing for the fences with a $1,000 deposit match for the final games of the MLB regular season when using promo code FOXNEWS.
There are plenty of great games on the slate, regardless of postseason implications. However, there are more that stand out with some sort of influence on what will happen next week when the playoffs begin.
For example, the Phillies and Brewers will both be in the playoffs in some order. Milwaukee looks to lock up home-field advantage throughout the playoffs, but the Phillies are still chasing the wild card spot. The Brewers are likely to win 100 games and are still having the Dodgers chase them for that top spot. The Phillies are in the final spot of the Wild Card, behind the Padres.

The Padres and Dodgers play each other with not much at stake other than the order. The Dodgers sweeping the Padres would be the only bad result for San Diego, and even then, the Diamondbacks would need to sweep the Rockies for the final series of the season to matter.
The Cardinals and Pirates also take each other on with an eye to next season, and both are done with postseason potential. However, there is still a matter of pride as one of these teams will end up in third place in the National League Central and the other ends up in fourth place.
No matter which game you choose, the choice with Underdog is simple. Get a deposit match of up to $1,000 when using promo code FOXNEWS and lock in a wager on the final week of the MLB regular season.
