Red Sox vs Orioles Prediction

Baltimore comes into this game looking for their third straight win in this series and they have scored seven runs in each of the first two games. Boston is looking for their first home win of the season and they will turn to Garrett Whitlock, who has allowed one earned run over 9.1 innings against Seattle and the Angels. The Orioles are starting Grayson Rodriguez, who has allowed three earned runs over 12.1 innings against the Angels and Pirates. Both of these pitchers have looked strong to start the 2024 season, but I think the Baltimore offense is way ahead of Boston’s. Take the Orioles here.
