The Mariners are coming into this game with a 20-28 record overall and they are 8-18 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They have won 2 of their last 3 games but are coming into this one off of a loss in their last game which snapped a 2 game winning streak that they were on. They just won their 3-game series against the Houston Astros 2-1, had Monday off as a rest day, and they are playing the series opener of a 3-game series with the Orioles on Tuesday. This will be the 1st game of the series on Tuesday. Marco Gonzales was the starting pitcher for them on Sunday while rookie pitcher George Kirby will be on the mound for them here on Tuesday. He is 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA this season. His team lost their last 3 straight games this season with him starting. In his last start, he allowed 4 ER, 1 HR, and 0 BB with 9 Ks on 8 hits in 5 IP against the Oakland Athletics.

The Orioles are coming into this game with a 20-29 record overall and they are 12-11 in their home games this season where they will be in this game.

This will be the 1st game of the series on Tuesday with the series finale of their series against the Red Sox still to be played on Monday.

Mariners vs Orioles Prediction

The Orioles have been playing very well in their recent games as they just had a few very good showings against the Red Sox in their last series. They are going up against a Mariners team that has also been playing well recently and just won their series over the Astros. The Mariners have been a very bad team on the road this season though and they are going up against another bad team in the Orioles here but the Orioles have actually been very good at home this season and have won most of their games there. The Orioles do not have a starter announced yet but their pitching has been pretty good for the most part and the Mariners have a rookie in Kirby here who has not been pitching that great this season anyway. The Orioles have shown a lot of fight in recent games and they will likely take this game at home in a battle of bad teams. The best bet here is on the Orioles to win this game.

Notable Quotes

 
"He was at the top of his game today. It doesn't get much better than what he did to take us this deep into the ballgame. It's one of those games where it's going to come down to creating chaos and traffic out there and then getting the big hit. … We just didn't get the big hit." - Scott Servais after his team’s loss against the Astros on Sunday.
 
 
"They were on everything he threw. We just need to flush this one and try to win a series. We haven't had too many of these and this wasn't our day. Zimm struggled from the start. We just need to let this one go." - Brandon Hyde after his team’s loss against the Red Sox on Sunday.
