Result: Loss
#929/930 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Over 8.5 Runs - Baltimore Orioles at Los Angeles Dodgers, Tuesday at 10:10 PM ET - The Orioles Cole Irvin just made his first appearance on the mound in 3 weeks and his first start in nearly 2 months. It was a shaky outing for him last week and he was unable to make it out of the 5th inning. In his last 7 starts Irvin has allowed 50 hits in 34.1 innings! He has been very hittable and also has been charged with 16 earned runs in 16.2 innings in his last 4 starts! Now Irvin has to face the Dodgers and he is on the road for this one. LA is expected to have Jack Flaherty on the mound in this one. He is off a solid start versus the Mariners but he gave up 7 earned runs on 13 hits (including 4 homers!) in 10.2 innings spanning his two starts before that one against Seattle. Flaherty now has to face one of the top hitting teams in the majors. The Orioles have the #1 slugging percentage in the majors this season! The Dodgers have the #1 slugging percentage in the NL. The LA bullpen is solid but the Orioles are middle of the pack at best. Baltimore did not hit well at all in their Sunday night loss and we expect them to bounce back strong here. This Orioles team has scored 5.3 runs per game on the road this season and have maintained that pace in their 19 road games since the All-Star break as well. The Dodgers have averaged scoring 5.5 runs per game in their last 18 home games. We look for these two lineups to be the story in this one as these two teams loaded with potent hitters put on a show here at Dodger Stadium in the opener. Per our computer math, high probability for a range of 10 to 12 runs here. Over is the call in this one Tuesday night.
