Let’s take a look at some No Runs First Inning prop bet odds and picks for today’s game: Orioles vs. Guardians.
Baltimore Orioles vs. Cleveland Guardians 6:10 pm ET
This is perhaps the most overlooked NRFI play on the slate, but a closer look reveals just how much value there is behind these two starters. Triston McKenzie will get us started in the top of the first. He has been electric this month as he’ll enter his sixth start of August with a 2.94 ERA and a 0.86 WHIP, and he’s two starts removed from a dominant 14-strikeout performance against the White Sox. While McKenzie has had issues settling in the first inning this season, his matchup tonight should aid him in posting a zero. Baltimore may be hanging around the playoff picture and have plenty of young talent in their lineup, but they are still notoriously slow starters. The Orioles enter tonight ranking just 27th in first-inning runs per game.
