Boston Red Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles Prediction
The Red Sox have won two in a row and with them winning eight of their last 10 games they have climbed into 2nd place in the AL East two games back of the New York Yankees. After a seven-game losing streak the Orioles bounced back and they have won two of their last three games. They sit in 3rd place in the AL East 3.5 games back of the Yankees. The Baltimore lineup has been struggling in the last couple of weeks, but they did put up 10 runs in their last game. Rodriguez is coming off a great last start, stymied the Orioles lineup earlier this season in Baltimore, and ranks 8th in the AL in ERA. Miley has struggled in two of his last three starts and while he pitched well in his last home outing the Red Sox bats will ensure that will not happen in this game. While Rodriguez may not hold the Orioles to one hit like he did earlier this season he will have another solid outing facing them and lead Boston to the win.
