About Last Night
Orioles beat Red Sox on Sunday Night Baseball
The MLB week concluded with the Orioles beating the Red Sox 5-3 in Baltimore. After taking two of three games in that series, the O's are 3.5 games ahead of the Sox in the standings and are just 2.5 games out of a Wild Card spot in the American League.
Ravens win in preseason…again
There is no stopping the Ravens – at least not in the preseason. They won their 22nd consecutive preseason game by beating the Cardinals 24-17 on Sunday. Arizona trailed 24-3 in the fourth quarter before scoring two touchdowns, and it even got the ball back but could not get any closer. Our Baltimore -5.5 pick was a winner and we are now 9-2 in our last 11 preseason bets.
