Boston Red Sox vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction

I’ll lean Red Sox here. Crawford needs some backup, though. In his last three starts combined, Crawford is 0-3 but he hasn’t been pitching badly. In that trio, he’s got six earned in 17.2 total frames. As for Suarez, he’s coming off six earned in 4.1 innings versus the White Sox but was pitching pretty well before that.

On Monday the Sox scored multiple runs in four different innings during a dominant offensive showing. Boston only used two pitchers from the pen as well, which means they’ll have a fresh crop of arms behind Crawford in game two.
