Orioles vs Red Sox Last Game Betting Preview
Baltimore Orioles
The Baltimore Orioles, leading the AL East with a 20-11 record, head to face the Reds after edging out the Yankees by one game in the standings. Excelling in divisional play with a 6-1 record, their overall performance shines both at home (12-7) and away (8-4). As favorites, the Orioles boast a 16-10 record, and they’ve also impressed as underdogs, going 4-1. In their recent clash with the Yankees, they secured a 7-2 victory, rallying after an early deficit to dominate with a burst of runs in the middle innings.
Pitcher Keegan Akin contributed a solid seven-inning outing, allowing only two runs, which propelled the Orioles to victory. This season, their games have averaged 9.3 runs, leaning towards under outcomes with an over/under record of 16-12. The Orioles excel on the run line, holding a robust 18-13 overall record and 7-5 on the road. With MLB odds today favoring their powerful offense. Leads the league with 48 home runs and a .446 slugging percentage, the Orioles rely on pitcher Cole Irvin’s continued success. Irvin heads into the game with two wins, his recent performances marked by controlled, effective innings.
Cincinnati Reds
Cincinnati, trailing the Brewers by 3.5 games in the NL Central with a 16-15 record, seeks to rebound after dropping the final two games against the Padres, falling to 4-6 in their last 10 games. Despite a 9-7 home record, they’ve struggled on the road at 7-8. The Reds, who are 6-11 as the underdog, including recent consecutive losses in that role, fare better as favorites with a 10-4 record. Their series outcomes reflect this variability, recording a 4-5-1 series record. Recently, Cincinnati faltered in a 6-2 defeat to the Padres, relinquishing an early lead as the Padres rallied with four runs in the seventh inning to secure victory. Graham Ashcraft’s strong six-inning, no-run start was wasted as Fernando Cruz suffered the loss from the bullpen, highlighting the Reds’ inability to close games effectively.
In home games, Cincinnati has seen the over hit in 17 out of 30 games, with a run average of 9.1 per game, yet when the line is set at 9 runs, the over is only 0-3-1. MLB scores reflect a tendency for high-scoring games in their recent matchups, with the over hitting in seven of their last ten games. The Reds have excelled in run line bets, boasting a 17-14 overall record. Clearly, performing notably well on the road with a 9-6 record against the run line. Hunter Greene, aiming to continue his strong performance following a shutout against the Rangers, holds a 1-2 record with a promising 3.63 ERA and 1.10 WHIP, reinforcing the Reds’ position in MLB betting lines. The offensive stats also paint a mixed picture; they rank eighth in runs per game at 4.8 but 21st in batting average at .218.
