The Baltimore Orioles and Detroit Tigers meet Sunday in MLB action at Comerica Park. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.
The Baltimore Orioles have scored 17 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 6 straight games. The Orioles are 14-6 this season when scoring 4 or more runs. Austin Hays leads the Orioles with 29 hits and 10 RBI, while Adley Rutschman and Ryan Mountcastle have combined for 56 hits and 37 RBI. Kyle Bradish gets the ball, and he is 1-1 with a 6.30 ERA and 9 strikeouts this season. This will be Bradish’s first career game against the Tigers.
The Detroit Tigers have scored 15 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 5 of their last 6 games. The Tigers are 8-3 this season when scoring 4 or more runs. Riley Greene leads the Tigers with 24 hits and 7 RBI, while Matt Vierling and Spencer Torkelson have combined for 42 hits and 19 RBI. Spencer Turnbull gets the ball, and he is 1-3 with a 7.25 ERA and 15 strikeouts this season. This will be Turnbull’s first career game against the Orioles.
The Orioles are 4-1 in their last 5 road games and 9-2 in their last 11 overall. The Tigers are 5-2 in their last 7 home games and 2-6 in their last 8 overall. The over is 4-1 in Orioles last 5 overall. The under is 8-2-1 in Tigers last 11 overall. The Orioles are 1-5 in the last 6 meetings in Detroit and 5-1 in the last 6 meetings.
The Baltimore Orioles have been one of the best offensive teams up to this point, and the Tigers’ offense is showing signs of coming along this week. Kyle Bradish has a 6.30 ERA and 2.00 WHIP through 10 innings, and Spencer Turnbull has a 7.25 ERA and 1.66 WHIP through 22.1 innings. I expect some fireworks. Give me the over in this spot.
