Brewers vs Orioles Prediction
I’ll take a stab on the Orioles. I could probably go either way here, though. Burnes is pitching well over his first three games. He’s coming off a win over the Red Sox with 7.0 innings and one earned. As for Rea, he should do well Sunday also. Rea posted a win in his last outing as well, notching 6.0 frames with one earned versus the Mariners.
On Saturday in game two, Baltimore couldn’t recover on offense after a rough start from Kremer. The bats came through pretty well statistically though, as eight different batters had at least one hit. If Burnes can hold things together Baltimore should have a solid shot at a victory on Sunday.
