As we head into the final weekend of the MLB regular season, bet365 Sportsbook is still offering its weekly home run promotion, Saturday Sluggers. This promo tacks on $1 in bonus bets for every home run hit this Saturday if you wager $50 or more on any parlay involving MLB games happening on the same day. A wager of between $20 and $49.99 will still generate a bonus of $0.50 per home run.
This Saturday, the Tampa Bay Rays are playing at Fenway Park against struggling righty Kutter Crawford, the Baltimore Orioles are visiting Minnesota’s Target Field, and Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers will be in the thin air at Coors Field.
Whether you’re betting a side, total, or a same-game parlay that might include a favorite to hit a home run, you will be eligible for this promotion at bet365. Just make sure you click the opt-in button and place bets with qualifying odds.

What is the bet365 Saturday Sluggers promo?
To recap, the Saturday Sluggers promotion offers bonus bets for every home run hit this Saturday across all MLB games if you wager at least $20 on a parlay or same-game parlay involving any MLB game taking place on Saturday. This is available for new and existing customers, but you must opt in to claim the promo.
Qualifying wagers must have three-plus legs to the parlay with odds of +100 or greater. If that wager is for $50 or more, the promo will pay out $1 in bonus bets for every home run in MLB this Saturday. If the wager is for less than $50 but is still $20 or more, the promo will provide $0.50 in bonus bets per homer.
So, a qualifying bet for $30 would generate $10 in bonus bets if there are 20 total home runs hit throughout MLB on Saturday. These bonus bets will land in customer accounts within 48 hours, and you’ll have seven days to wager them before they expire.
Take a look at some of the favorites to hit home runs this Saturday.
Favorites to hit a home run this weekend
Shohei Ohtani
The first member of the 50-homer, 50-stolen base club is on an absolute tear right now, and he’ll be playing at Coors Field this weekend. This season, Ohtani is hitting .444 with 2 home runs in 18 at-bats at Coors entering this series. He’s batting .360 with 11 home runs over the past month.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
The Blue Jays are hosting the Marlins this weekend, and their right-handed hitters have a platoon advantage against Miami’s lefty starter Braxton Garrett, who has not pitched since June 17. Garrett coughed up 10 earned runs and three homers over his final three appearances in June before hitting the 60-day IL with elbow issues. Guerrero Jr. is hitting .339 at home this season and owns a .967 OPS when facing lefties.
Randy Arozarena
Arozarena hasn’t hit many home runs over the past month, but oddsmakers are giving him a fair chance to leave the yard when the Mariners host the Athletics this Saturday. The A’s are throwing 22-year-old Joey Estes, who coughed up three home runs over four innings in his last start against the Yankees. Estes has given up 22 home runs over 122.2 innings this season, so Arozarena and his teammates could light up the scoreboard at Safeco Field.
