Match Prediction
This game is expected to be close, but the edge slightly goes to Arizona due to the stronger pitching form of Eduardo Rodriguez.
Baltimore has the advantage of playing at home and tends to score more after a loss, which means they will put pressure on Arizona’s pitching.
However, Bradish’s inconsistency could become a big problem, especially against a Diamondbacks team that has started scoring better on the road.
If Rodriguez continues his current form and Arizona’s top order performs well, they have a strong chance to win this series.
Predicted Score:
Diamondbacks 6 – Orioles 5
