Dodgers vs Orioles Prediction & Pick
The Orioles are likely disappointed after yesterday's collapse, leaving them out for revenge tonight. Fortunately, they have a favorable matchup against Dodgers starting pitcher Michael Grove. The 26-year-old hurler has been dreadful in enemy territory this season, going 0-1 with an 11.15 ERA in four road appearances (three starts).
Meanwhile, the Dodgers will likely struggle to get much going against Tyler Wells. The former 2016 15th-rounder has been nothing but consistent for the O's, tallying a 7-4 record and 3.18 ERA in 18 games (17 starts). Furthermore, Wells hasn't even allowed more tha n two earned runs in each of his last eight appearances.
After blowing a three-run lead, I see the Orioles having a more complete performance tonight. They're a promising 32-12 SU as the favorite this season and were on an eight-game winning streak before last night's loss. If they can get to Grove early, the Orioles will even this series.
Final Score Prediction:'Orioles: 5 | Dodgers: 4
Dodgers vs Orioles Best Bet
With Grove starting tonight, I expect the Orioles to be the first team to reach three runs. The Wheeling, WV native tends to struggle early on, playing to a 5.40 ERA in the first three innings this season. Grove has also given up eight earned runs on 15 hits over his last nine road innings alone, too.
After making good on this prop yesterday, look for the O's to reach three runs first, again.
