Baltimore Orioles vs Athletics Prediction

The Orioles are 7-3 in their last 10 overall meetings against the Athletics, and are 5-1 in their last 6 meetings in Oakland. Over is 7-3 in their last 10 meetings.

In this Baltimore Orioles vs Athletics Prediction, the Orioles are coming as -120 road favorites. Both teams have almost identical overall records, but the Athletics are the second-worst home team in the whole MLB, and prior to yesterday’s win, they were in a major slump. I don’t trust either of those pitchers, who have a combined 9.75 ERA, and both teams have bottom-5 bullpens, with a combined 11.37 ERA. Sutter Health Park is a hitter-friendly park, and the total is high for a reason. I expect fireworks offensively tonight, so take the over 11 in this one.
