Boston Red Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles Prediction
The Red Sox had won three in a row before their last game, but they are still atop the AL East with a three game lead over the New York Yankees. They had scored 22 runs in their three straight wins before only scoring two in their last game. The Orioles snapped their three-game losing streak in their last game and they have lost nine of their last 11 games. They are well out of the AL East race and they are 5.5 games out of the 2nd AL Wild Card. Fister is coming off a less than impressive outing after being very impressive in his previous two starts. Bundy had a good last outing, but it came in a loss with him not getting much run support. The pitching for the Orioles has been their weakness this season and they gave up 30 runs in losing three straight before giving up four in their last game. However, Bundy will have his 2nd straight solid start in the first game of this series, which the Orioles will win handing the Red Sox their 2nd straight loss.
