The Chicago White Sox and Baltimore Orioles meet Friday in MLB action at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The White Sox look for a win after winning seven of their last 10 games. The Orioles need a win after losing four of their last five games.
The Chicago White Sox have scored 15 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in 10 straight games. The White Sox have won eight of their last 11 games when scoring four or more runs. Tim Anderson leads the White Sox with 91 hits and 29 RBI while Jose Abreu and Yoan Moncada have combined for 145 hits and 100 RBI. Dallas Keuchel gets the ball, and he is 6-3 with a 4.48 ERA and 55 strikeouts this season. Keuchel is 4-2 with a 3.23 ERA and 38 strikeouts in his career against the Orioles.
The Baltimore Orioles have scored 14 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their last eight games. The Orioles have won five of their last eight games when scoring four or more runs. Cedric Mullins leads the Orioles with 103 hits and 34 RBI while Trey Mancini and Ryan Mountcastle have combined for 156 hits and 101 RBI. Jorge Lopez gets the ball, and he is 2-11 with a 6.02 ERA and 77 strikeouts this season. Lopez is 1-2 with a 5.48 ERA and 25 strikeouts in his career against the White Sox.
The White Sox are 8-3 in their last 11 games following an off day and 7-3 in their last 10 overall. The Orioles are 21-45 in their last 66 Friday games and 69-141 in their last 210 home games. The over is 8-2 in White Sox last 10 overall. The over is 4-1 in Orioles last 5 overall. The White Sox are 5-0 in the last 5 meetings.
Keuchel has been up and down this season, but the White Sox have enough consistent offense to where it probably doesn’t matter. The Orioles aren’t good enough to trust with plus money and they’ve had zero success this season with Jorge Lopez on the mound. You can argue this price should be a lot steeper. Give me the White Sox.
