The 2nd game of the divisional series between the New York Yankees and the Baltimore Orioles will take place in Baltimore tonight. The Yankees are looking to repeat their performance from last night, when they were victorious.
Starter Carlos Rondon went 4 innings and allowed a single run on 2 hits last night. The bullpen then came in and pitched a combined 5-inning shutout to help lead the Yankees to a 3-1 win. Trent Grisham provided all the offense as he went 2-4 with all 3 RBIs in the win. Coby Mayo’s solo home run was the only offense for the Orioles. Baltimore is still alive for the wildcard, and the Yankees are still alive to win the division.
Baltimore is just 1 game out of the wildcard, and the Yankees are just 5 behind the Rays for the lead in the AL East. Tonight, Will Warren will draw the start for the Yankees and will bring with him his 4.42 ERA. On the other side, Chris Bassitt will go for the Orioles. He is just 4-4 on the season and carries a hefty 5.11 ERA.
It will likely come down to which offense can go first that will decide this game. Both starters have shown susceptibility to being knocked around this season. If one time can jump out to a lead, they will need to keep the runs coming as no lead will be safe.

Our Baltimore Orioles vs New York Yankees Prediction
The runs have come early and often for opposing teams against Chris Bassitt this season. We like that trend to continue and for this Yankees offense to break out a bit after some recent struggles. Despite the inflated ERA, Bassitt is still just 4-4 which tells us he typically gets decent run support. We think that will be a factor once again here as these teams push this total over the number tonight.
