The Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles meet Wednesday in MLB action at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.
The Boston Red Sox have scored 24 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 9 straight games. The Red Sox are 12-7 this season when scoring 4 or more runs. Alex Verdugo leads the Red Sox with 31 hits and 12 RBI, while Justin Turner and Rafael Devers have combined for 49 hits and 32 RBI. Tanner Houck gets the ball, and he is 3-0 with a 4.29 ERA and 22 strikeouts this season. Houck is 3-1 with a 2.75 ERA and 23 strikeouts in his career against the Orioles.
The Baltimore Orioles have scored 13 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 10 of their last 13 games. The Orioles are 11-5 this season when scoring 4 or more runs. Austin Hays leads the Orioles with 25 hits and 9 RBI, while Adley Rutschman and Ryan Mountcastle have combined for 48 hits and 35 RBI. Tyler Wells gets the ball, and he is 0-1 with a 2.70 ERA and 16 strikeouts this season. Wells is 1-0 with a 2.57 ERA and 11 strikeouts in his career against the Red Sox.
The Red Sox are 17-35 in their last 52 road games and 4-12 in their last 16 Wednesday games. The Orioles are 25-56 in their last 81 Wednesday games and 2-5 in their last 7 during game 3 of a series. The over is 7-1 in Red Sox last 8 overall. The under is 5-1 in Orioles last 6 overall. The Red Sox are 39-19 in the last 58 meetings in Baltimore.
The Baltimore Orioles have been the more consistent team and Wells has been money through 23.1 innings, which includes having a 0.69 WHIP. Quick turnarounds usually favor the home team, and Tanner Houck has been more than hittable this season. Give me the O’s and the cheap price for a bounce back win.
