The Orioles are coming into this game with a 3-6 record overall and they are 0-3 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They have won 2 of their last 3 games and are coming into this one off of a win in their last game. They just won their 3-game series against the New York Yankees 2-1 and they are playing the 2nd game of a 4-game series with the Athletics on Tuesday night. This will be the 2nd game of the series on Tuesday with the series opener still to be played on Monday. Spenser Watkins is the starting pitcher for them on Monday while there is no probable pitcher yet on the mound for them here on Tuesday. They scored 9 runs in their last series averaging 3 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 6 runs against them averaging 2 runs allowed per game.

 

The Athletics are coming into this game with a 5-5 record overall and they are playing their 2nd home game of the season where they will be in this game. They have lost 2 of their last 3 games and are coming into this one off of a loss in their last game. They just lost their 3-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays 2-1 and they are playing the 2nd game of a 4-game series with the Orioles on Tuesday night. This will be the 2nd game of the series on Tuesday with the series opener still to be played on Monday. Frankie Montas is the starter for them on Monday while Cole Irvin will be throwing the first pitch for them here on Tuesday. He is 1-1 with a 5.40 ERA this season. His team won their last game with him as the starter. In his last start, he allowed 3 earned runs, 1 homer, and 0 BB with 2 strikeouts on 5 hits through 6.1 innings played against the Tampa Bay Rays. They scored 11 runs in their last series averaging just under 4 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 13 runs against them averaging just over 4 runs allowed per game.

 

The Athletics are coming off of a series where they played well even though they lost 2 of the 3 games. They were hitting the ball well against the Blue Jays and now they are coming back home for their home opening series with the Orioles. They are going up against an Orioles team that is going to have a lot of confidence in this series after winning their last series against the Yankees and their pitching was very good in that entire series. They only gave up 6 runs against the Yankees and 5 of those came in the 1 game they lost, only allowing 1 run in the 2 games they won. They do not have a starting pitcher listed yet but all of their starters pitched well in that last series and their bullpen was also pitching very well. The A's have been hitting the ball very well in 2 straight series now against the rays and the Blue Jays but the Orioles have been pitching well and for the value here, it is worth it to take them on the runline here as they have been playing well. The Orioles may lose this game but it will be within 1 run at least.

"Robinson Chirinos won us the game, with that at-bat. He's facing (Jonathan) Loáisiga, who's really good, and great stuff, and puts together just a pro at-bat to get a walk there." - Brandon Hyde on his team’s win against the Yankees on Sunday.

 

 

"I couldn't be happier with the club's energy, effort level and fight through these 10 days. The record may not reflect, right now, how well I feel we played on this road trip." - Mark Kotsay on his team’s loss against the Blue Jays on Sunday.
