Baltimore Orioles vs NY Yankees Prediction
Both of these teams have had some struggles recently, but they need to figure things out quickly because this is a huge series in the AL East. Baltimore is currently leading the division by a slim margin over the Yankees, but the Red Sox are charging fast. Baltimore is going with Rodriguez in this game, who has put together a very solid campaign. New York is starting Gil, who had a very good outing last time out, but struggled in the three starts prior to that. I really don’t know what to think about the Yankees, as they have not played well in about three weeks, so my Baltimore Orioles vs NY Yankees prediction is for the Orioles to win at home.
