Phillies vs Orioles Prediction

I’m on the over in this one. I thought that Monday’s game was going to be lower-scoring before it turned into a blowout, but I think that Tuesday’s matchup lives up to that high-scoring nature once again. Kremer’s issues this season, for the most part, have played out on the road, and Taijuan Walker has allowed 7 home runs in his last three starts overall. These are two teams that have the ability to pour on the runs, so give me the over here.
