Why Bet The Baltimore Orioles Odds
Picking a winner in this series isn’t easy. The Orioles are a good bet in this contest because they’ve simply been rock-solid since the start of the season. Baltimore ha gone 2-2 over their lat four games and 6-4 over their lat 10 games overall.The O’s will hand the ball to right-hander Alec Asher (1-0, 2.16 ERA. 6K) who will make his second start of the season. Asher got the win in his only other start in Toronto on April 15 and has compiled a fine, 2.16 ERA over 8.1 innings pitched this season.Why Bet The Boston Red Sox Odds
The Red Sox are a good bet in this contest because they’re playing good baseball and have revenge on their minds. Boston has won two of three and will hand the ball to ace southpaw Chris Sale (1-2, 1.19 ERA, 52K) in this affair. That could be bad news for Baltimore seeing as how Sale has not allowed more than two earned runs in any of his five starts this season and has tossed at least 7.0 innings in every start. Unfortunately, ale has gotten little to no run support with Boston scoring just four runs for Sale during his 37.2 innings.
