Daily Dingers For Friday (June 19th): Best & Most Fun Home Run Bets

Chicago White Sox vs Detroit Tigers

Start Time: 6:40 PM EST

Hey, the Chicago White Sox aren’t a laughingstock anymore! They’re actually better than the Detroit Tigers at this point. However, the Tigers are trotting ace Tarik Skubal to the mound tomorrow, so I’m not taking a Sox hitter.

No, instead I’m going with the Tigers Kerry Carpenter. Carpenter has 10 homers in 51 games, and has hit up Sox starter Erick Fedde for two dingers in only five career at-bats.

Best Bet: Kerry Carpenter (+420)

Los Angeles Angels vs Athletics

Start Time: 9:40 PM EST

We’re sticking around West Sacramento for a second day, not because the Los Angeles Angels versus the (No Name) Athletics is a compelling series. But it’s good for potential home run prop plays.

Tomorrow’s play is on the Angels, Jo Adell. Like Carpenter, Adell has 10 ding-dongs this season, but he went yard 37 times last season, so the potential for a breakout is there. And he’s homered off A’s starter Jeffrey Springs twice in nine career at-bats.

Best Bet: Jo Adell (+310)

2026 Overall Record: 9-22 (30%)
