00:03
Boston and Baltimore also tonight, 635 Eastern.
00:06
Pavetta versus Eflin.
00:08
Favorite here for Baltimore.
00:09
Actually opened up at a minus 152 price overnight.
00:11
It's now showing live at a minus 136 price.
00:14
So a little bit of a dip there for the Orioles,
00:16
a total of eight and a half.
00:17
Two good teams at the plate here.
00:18
What gives tonight down in Baltimore?
00:21
Guys, I am officially Captain Ahab
00:23
when it comes to the Baltimore Orioles
00:25
going down with this damn ship.
00:27
Because the last two nights,
00:28
the Orioles against the Nationals in the first five
00:31
and lost that one when Trevor Rodgers got rocked.
00:34
And last night, I bet the Orioles team total over
00:36
to watch them in the seventh inning,
00:38
not push a runner across with two outs in the eighth,
00:40
two outs in the seventh,
00:42
and then do it again in the eighth
00:43
to not get that fifth run.
00:45
So what are we doing here, guys?
00:46
We are going to go down with the ship.
00:48
We're gonna take the over eight and a half in this game.
00:51
Why?
00:51
Because the Orioles are top 10
00:54
in batting average OPS and WRC plus at home.
00:56
They've hit the second most home runs.
00:58
They've scored the sixth most runs.
01:00
Red Sox starter Nick Pivetta
01:01
has been better on the road this year,
01:03
but his last four starts a little rough,
01:04
posting a 5-4-0 ERA.
01:06
Hasn't faced the birds this year,
01:08
so maybe a little bit of a mixed bag,
01:09
but the Red Sox bullpen guy's been taxed in that series
01:12
with the Rangers going to extra innings
01:14
twice losing yesterday.
01:15
So the Orioles will have at least eight,
01:18
if not nine at-bats to get this thing going.
01:20
Zach Leffin starts for Baltimore.
01:22
Now, he's already faced the Red Sox this year
01:24
in a Tampa Bay Rays uniform.
01:26
Didn't go well for him in this start.
01:29
Last year, made two starts against him.
01:30
Didn't go well there either to an ERA near seven.
01:33
The Red Sox on the road this year.
01:37
Number two in runs, I'm sorry,
01:39
number three in runs scored,
01:40
number four in home runs hit,
01:41
and top three in batting average OPS and WRC plus
01:45
on the road this year.
01:47
I'm going down with this ship.
01:48
If we don't get nine runs tonight between these two teams,
01:50
I may just call it quits.
