Will today’s series finale between the Twins and Orioles fall under the betting total in Baltimore? First pitch is scheduled for 12:35PM ET.
The Odds
According to oddsmakers, the Orioles are -115 money line favorites to win today at home. That makes the Twins -105 money line underdogs to pull off the sweep in Baltimore. With Jose Berrios set to face Chris Tillman in the pitching matchup, the over/under sits at 9 runs.
Twins heating up
Minnesota has won five of six overall and eight of its last nine games on the road. The Twins are also 6-2 in their last eight games following a win and 9-1 in their last 10 road games versus a right-handed starter. In their last eight games when their opponent scores two runs or less in its previous game, Minnesota is an impressive 7-1.
Orioles a good bet with Tillman on hill
Baltimore has won 25 of Tillman’s last 35 starts. They’re also 45-22 in his last 67 home outings. In Tillman’s last 16 outings coming off four days of rest, the Orioles are 13-3. In his last 15 starts versus a team with a winning record, Baltimore is 12-3.
MLB Predictions
The under has been a great when these two teams meet in Baltimore. Granted, the over hit in Game 1 of this series, but the under cashed last night in Minnesota’s 2-0 victory. The under is now 7-1 in the last eight meetings in Baltimore and 8-3 in the last 11 meetings overall.
Meanwhile, in Tillman’s last five home starts against the Twins, the combined score has fallen under the betting total four times. In Tillman’s last seven outings versus Minnesota overall, the under is 5-2.
The under is also 3-0-1 in Lance Barrett’s last four games behind home plate as well.
