They just won their 3-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays 2-1 and they are playing the series finale of a 3-game series with the Yankees on Wednesday. This will be the 3rd game of the series on Wednesday with the 2nd game still to be played on Tuesday. Bruce Zimmermann is the starting pitcher for them on Tuesday while Tyler Wells is on the mound for them here on Wednesday. He is 1-3 with a 4.41 ERA this season.

They scored 16 runs in their last series averaging just over 5 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 18 runs against them averaging 6 runs allowed per game.

 

The Yankees are coming into this game with a 29-14 record overall and they are 15-8 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They have lost 4 of their last 5 games and are coming into this one on a 3 game losing streak. They just lost their 3-game series against the Chicago White Sox 2-1 and they are playing the series finale of a 3-game series with the Orioles on Wednesday. This will be the 3rd game of the series on Wednesday with the 2nd game still to be played on Tuesday. Jordan Montgomery is the starting pitcher for them on Tuesday while rookie pitcher JP Sears is on the mound for them here on Wednesday. He is 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA this season. His team won their last game this season with him as a starter. In his last start, he allowed 0 earned runs, 0 homers, and 1 BB with 1 strikeout on 2 hits in 1 inning played against the Baltimore Orioles. They scored 8 runs in their last series averaging just under 3 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 13 runs against them averaging just over 4 runs allowed per game.

 

The Yankees are coming into this game as a big favorite with the current betting odds. They have not been playing well in their recent games as their long streaks have come to an end and they have now lost a lot of their games in the last week. They are going up against an Orioles team that has been very inconsistent this season but just won their series against the Rays and now the first game of this series with the Yankees as well. The Yankees still have a much better team though between their hitters and their pitching staff, this is a game that they need to win as they cannot afford to drop games and a series to a team like the Orioles with the division they have to compete in. The Yankees will have some pride in this game at home after dropping the first game in the series to the Orioles at home and they will bounce back here. The best bet here is on the Yankees to win this game on the runline.
