Result: Win
#975/976 ASA top play on 10* OVER 10 Baltimore Orioles @ Los Angeles Angels, 4:07 PM ET - The Orioles are facing a lefty today as Patrick Sandoval gets the start for the Angels. Baltimore is 2nd in the majors in both batting average (.276) and slugging percentage (.444) against southpaws this season! Those are very impressive numbers as only the Houston Astros rank better! Baltimore starts Tom Eshelman here. The Orioles right-hander has a 5.42 ERA in his career and a 6.57 ERA this season. In 83 MLB innings his BAA is .292 so opponents certainly have found him to be quite hittable. The Angels are averaging 6.5 runs per game last 6 games and have won 5 of 6 so they are "in the zone" right now. Prior to yesterday's under, the over was on a 5-1 run in Angels games. The Orioles have not had back to back games stay under the total since mid-June! That is a span of 3 full weeks and that trend looks likely to continue here after yesterday was a rare under. Plenty of runs are likely in this one given all of these key factors. This total is in the 10 range but our computer math model shows this one getting well into double digits in runs scored with each club enjoying success at the plate and, at a minimum having a very strong shot of getting to at least 5 runs apiece which, of course, would mean at least 11 runs (6-5 final at a minimum) in this one.
