Baltimore Orioles vs Kansas City Royals Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 7/10/26, 3:08 PM  by Carlos Zabala in MLB Picks

The Royals and Orioles are in last place in their respective divisions; they will face each other in their final series before the All-Star break. Kansas City has a record of 38-56 and the Orioles 43-51, but in an American League where only five teams have a winning record, both still have wild card hopes.

The Royals had an unusual three-game winning streak in July. This streak included a rare offensive outburst between July 6 and 7, where they scored 15 runs against the Phillies and 16 against the Mets the following day. However, before Friday the 10th, the Royals lost the last two games of their series in Queens, allowing the Mets to score five runs in a single inning in both games.

Meanwhile, the Orioles avoided a home sweep against the Cubs by taking the final game of the series at Camden Yards, winning it 3-2. Tyler O'Neill hit his sixth home run of the year, and Jeremiah Jackson delivered the game-winning hit in the eighth inning, a double that drove in Alonso and Henderson.
