Free MLB Pick
The Orioles have owned the Red Sox this season (who hasn’t) winning 7 of the 10 games played this season including 5 consecutive victories. That said the home team has won 7 of the 10 and Boston did get the win when these same two starters were on the mound earlier this season at Fenway. Baltimore is only 12-19 away from Camden Yards and 2-5 in Ubaldo Jiminez’ road starts.
