MLB Betting Lines: Red Sox vs Orioles Baseball Free Pick: AL East leading Boston (58-36) faces Baltimore (38-55) who are 19.5 games back of the AL East lead. After scoring 15 runs last night, here’s hoping the Sox left some bullets in the holster for this contest tonight.

Red Sox @ Orioles: MLB Game Day Preview

These two teams combined for 25 runs, on 28 hits and nine walks, as they lit up the sky over the beautiful Camden Yards ball park on Monday. Tonight those numbers could be even higher – based on the weak pitching match-up for the second game in this three game set.

Rookie RHP Kyle Weiland (0-0 13.50 ERA) makes his second career start for Boston. This will also be his second start against the Orioles as he went four innings, giving up six runs on eight hits, in a no-decision won 8-6 by the Red Sox back on July 10, 2011.

In a weird coincidence, RHP Jeremy Guthrie (3-13 4.45 ERA) opposed Weilland in his first start and he gets the call again tonight. Guthrie has wobbled all season long as he leads the Major Leagues with most loses at 13 – two more than four pitchers who are tied with 11 loses.

Normally we would shy away from a game that featured two pitchers with the numbers that Weilland and Guthrie are sporting but the Red Sox have been flat out mashing of late. Boston has scored 71 runs in their eleven games and they have a 9-2 record over that stretch. Game Total bettors should be all over the OVER 10 runs (-130) based on this pitching match-up.

Baltimore can puts runs up on the board as well (39 runs in their last six games) but they have lost 16 of their last 21 contests. The O’s have a slight advantage, based on the pitching match-up alone, but the BoSox bats will more than counter it.

Take the Red Sox over the Orioles with the -1.5 (+135) Bodog Point Spread!
