Baltimore Orioles vs Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction

The Orioles haven’t been able to string together wins this season, and Morton has been a disaster through 8.1 innings, allowing 13 hits and nine runs. The Diamondbacks are too explosive of a team to keep this little rough patch going, and Kelly is better than what he showed his last time out in Yankee Stadium. It’s the Yankees in that little league park. A lot of pitchers will struggle in that spot. This feels like a game where the Diamondbacks get back on track. I’ll lay the cheap price with the Diamondbacks in game 2.
