The Baltimore Orioles (41-22 SU, 38-25 ATS) attempt to complete the sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays (31-33 SU, 26-38 ATS) and close out a series with a win for the first time in three tries. The Orioles haven’t lost a series since April 28, but they have found it challenging to close series with a win as of late. They lost two to the Blue Jays to end that series earlier on this trip, and they fell to Tampa Bay in their most recent home series at Camden Yards.
When Baltimore does get in the win column, it’s done so with its offense. The Orioles have scored at least four runs in 14 of their past 17 games, and they rank fifth in the majors in runs scored. Baltimore has also dominated the division this season, going 15-6 against the AL East.

- The Orioles’ 20 road wins ranks second in the majors.

Our Tampa Bay Rays vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction
Tampa Bay’s biggest concern is Grayson Rodriguez, whom the Rays have never hit well. In three appearances against the Rays, Rodriguez has pitched 19.1 innings and owns a 1.86 ERA. He hasn’t been as effective away from Baltimore, but he has pitched very well in day starts.
Zack Littell should keep Tampa Bay in the game for a while, but the Rays’ bullpen simply doesn’t match what the Orioles bring to the table. Baltimore owns a 3.38 bullpen ERA, which only ranks second in the division because of how good the Yankees have been. The Orioles haven’t won a game by fewer than two runs since May 15, which covers 14 victories. Baltimore keeps putting up comfortable margins because it can hit and it’s got a reliable bullpen. That should provide an edge here; our prediction for Baltimore vs. Tampa Bay is Orioles -1.5.
Prediction:
Orioles -1.5
