WNBA guru Stephen Nover dominates the league during May with the record to back it up - 34-21-1 for 62 percent on his premium/free plays during the past four seasons in May. Stephen looks to go 4-1 on his last five WNBA plays finding his Game of the Week on the Wednesday menu. There is far more than meets the eye here making this worthy of Game of the Week status!

| MLB | (903) Arizona Diamondbacks at (904) San Francisco Giants | 3:45pm EDT - May 27/2026 |
The PLAY: Arizona Diamondbacks -130 Michael Soroka (RHP), Trevor McDonald (RHP) Must Start
Care to step in against the Diamondbacks? Not me and not with the Giants that's for sure.
Arizona is 9-1 in its last 10 games. The Diamondbacks have defeated the Giants in eight of the past nine meetings. This includes going 5-0 against them this season winning those games by a combined margin of 45-15.
I expect the Diamondbacks' dominance of the Giants to continue today in a pitching matchup of Michael Soroka versus Trevor McDonald.
Soroka has been the Diamondbacks' best right handed starter this season with a 6-2 record and 3.27 ERA. Soroka is going against a Giants team that has scored the fewest runs in the majors. San Francisco's last in the league in steals and doesn't hit with much power either.
Arizona is averaging 6.2 runs per game during its last 10 games. McDonald has a 4.76 ERA and just surrendered seven earned runs in 3 1/3 innings to the White Sox at home this past Friday. The Diamondbacks have the fifth highest batting average and rank eighth in runs.
Editor's note: Stephen Nover is enjoying a winning baseball season. He cashed his Tuesday MLB free play on the Braves. Stephen has his MLB Wednesday Wipeout Winner heading his baseball card today and also has his WNBA Game of the Week today looking to go 35-21-1 on his last 57 WNBA May plays.)
