Orioles vs Yankees Prediction

The Orioles are coming into this game as a massive underdog with the current betting odds. They have been playing very well in their recent games though as they just won their series with the Angels and they have even won their first series with the Yankees already just over a week ago. The Orioles have been pitching very well in their games this season, so well that they have been trending to the under in all of their games in a big way so far. They have also been hitting the ball very well though and even in the only game that they dropped to the Angels in that series, they erased a 6-0 deficit tying it 6-6 before allowing the winning run shortly after to lose by 1 run. They are going up against a Yankees team that has been playing much better recently coming off of a sweep of the Guardians in their last series but they struggled a lot with the Orioles last season and they are already down 2-1 this season in head-to-head games against them. The Yankees have been hitting the ball much better in recent games and Severino has been pitching very well as well so it is highly likely that the Yankees will win this game at home but the Orioles have still been playing very well themselves and with that kind of value on them for how well they have been playing recently, the best bet here is on the Orioles to cover the runline in this game.
