The Orioles have the second-fewest wins in baseball. But they can hit left-handers. That's bad news for Rays southpaw Ryan Yarbrough. Baltimore leads the majors in batting average against lefties at .292. The Orioles also rank first in slugging percentage and OPS when facing left-handers.
The Over has cashed the past seven times Baltimore has gone up against a lefty starter.
Yarbrough is 0-2 with a 4.62 ERA when pitching at home. This is in line with his career numbers, which have been better on the road. Yarbrough has a 3.46 lifetime ERA on the road compared to 4.48 at Tropicana Field.
Baltimore starter, Keegan Akin, is just the opposite. His career numbers are a 2.92 home ERA compared to a 5.57 road ERA.
Only three teams average more runs per game than the Rays.
