NY Yankees vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction
I’ll probably try the Orioles here. We should have a fun starter matchup regardless. Burnes is rolling over his last pair with 14.0 innings and zero earned runs for a 2-0 record in that time. As for Cole, he’s going off a complete game with one earned on two hits and a walk versus Oakland. Cole took a loss with seven earned in 4.1 innings versus Boston before that, though.
On Wednesday the Orioles had two big innings on offense and held up pretty well defensively despite giving up 10 hits. I like Baltimore to keep it rolling on Thursday.
