The Yankees are coming into this game with a 4-4 record overall and they are 0-1 in their road games this 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 tied their 4-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays 2-2 and they are playing the series finale of a 3-game series with the Orioles on Sunday. This will be the 3rd game of the series on Sunday with the 2nd game still to be played on Saturday. Jameson Taillon is the starting pitcher for them on Saturday while Nestor Cortes will be on the mound for them here on Sunday. He is 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA this season. His team won his first game this season with him as a starter. In his last start, he allowed 0 ER, 0 HRs, and 0 BB with 5 Ks on 3 hits in 4.1 IP against the Toronto Blue Jays. They scored 11 runs in their last series averaging just under 3 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 9 runs against them averaging just over 2 runs allowed per game.

 

The Orioles are coming into this game with a 2-5 record overall and they are 2-2 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They have lost 2 of their last 3 games but are coming into this one off of a win in their last game which snapped a 2 game losing streak that they were on. They just lost their 3-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers 2-1 and they are playing the series finale of a 3-game series with the Yankees on Sunday night. This will be the 3rd game of the series on Sunday with the 2nd game still to be played on Saturday. Tyler Wells is the starter for them on Saturday while Bruce Zimmermann will be throwing the first pitch for them here on Sunday. He is 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA this season. His team won his first game this season with him as the starter. In his last start, he allowed 0 earned runs, 0 homers, and 2 BB with 4 strikeouts on 3 hits through 4 innings played against the Milwaukee Brewers. They scored 8 runs in their last series averaging just under 3 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 9 runs against them averaging 3 runs allowed per game.

 

The Yankees are coming into this game as a massive favorite with the current betting odds. The Yankees have not been playing great in their recent games and they have already dropped the first game of this series to the Orioles. They are a much better team than the Orioles are and they have already shown their talent in a few games this season they just need to be more consistent. They will not lose 2 games to the Orioles in this series though and they will step up in this game to make sure they do not lose this game. Both of these pitchers are coming off of good starts in their last games but this is purely based on the pride and ego of the Yankee players here. Their lineup is much stronger and they had many chances to score runs and win that first game but they were not able to bring the runs in. They will not let that happen again here and the Yankees will come out of this game with the win. The best bet here is on the Yankees runline.

"Thought the last pitch was probably up. Thought there was a pitch maybe with Clarke earlier in the inning that we had him, another close one. It was more just making sure (catcher) Jose (Trevino) didn't get in any trouble out there." - Aaron Boone after his team’s loss against the Orioles on Friday.
