San Diego Padres vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction 

San Diego comes into this matchup on a nice winning streak and they are staying within striking distance of the Dodgers. The Padres are 30-22 on the road this year, while the Orioles are 30-23 at home. We have seen Baltimore struggle over the last few weeks, but they have benefitted from the Yankees also struggling. San Diego is going with Michael King, who has been locked in over his last four outings, but will face a very dangerous Baltimore lineup. The Padres probably have the small advantage on the mound, but I am taking Baltimore at home at this reasonable price. My San Diego Padres vs Baltimore Orioles prediction is for Baltimore to win.
