Yankees vs Orioles Betting Prediction
New York Yankees
The New York Yankees, take their 19-10 record on the road to face Baltimore today. Coming off two consecutive wins against the Brewers, including a dominant 15-5 victory. The Yankees have shone especially bright on the road this season, boasting an 11-5 record. Their prowess extends across their divisional games (5-4) and their overall series record stands impressively at 7-1-1. New York’s offensive in their last game featured a seven-run sixth inning, by Anthony Rizzo who went 4/4 with a homer and three RBIs. Despite Marcus Stroman’s struggle, giving up four earned runs, the Yankees have been strong favorites, evidenced by their -136 money line in the last game.
Yankees games have been high-scoring affairs lately, with the Over hitting in their last three games, pushing the combined runs average to 17.0. Although the Over/Under record this season is 12-16, their games still average 8.7 runs. On the road, the Yankees excel on the run line, with a 10-6 record, including a stellar 7-1 as underdogs. Clarke Schmidt, taking the mound today, brings a solid start to the season, with no home runs allowed and consistent strikeouts in his outings. As the Yankees continue to MLB score an average of 5.1 runs per game (ranking 8th in the MLB team stats) and excel with a .253 batting average. They remain formidable contenders, backed by the likes of Juan Soto, Aaron Judge, and Giancarlo Stanton. Judge and Stanton, both on hitting streaks, look to extend their powerful performances.
Baltimore Orioles
The Baltimore Orioles, just one game behind the Yankees with a 17-10 record, face New York at home today. After losing 7-6 to the Athletics, Baltimore, which has a strong 6-3 series record this year, aims to rebound from that tough loss. The Orioles have excelled on the road (8-4) and at home (9-6), with a solid performance as underdogs (3-1) and favorites (14-9). Their recent game saw a late-game slip despite leading, marked by strong performances from Ryan Mountcastle and Adley Rutschman.
On the betting front, Orioles games have often exceeded the over/under, especially at home, where 16 of 25 games have gone over an average line of 8 runs. With today’s line set at 9.5, expectations are high for a high-scoring game. Baltimore’s offense is among MLB’s best, ranking second in runs per game (5.6) and first in home runs (44), with Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson leading the charge. As Grayson Rodriguez steps up for his first home start against the Yankees, his 18 strikeouts in 16 2/3 innings, despite allowing three homers, will be key. Baltimore’s run differential of +1.3 per game and a 15-12 run line record highlight their competitiveness.
