Yankees vs Orioles in 2023
Both teams have hosted the other in a series this season so far, and it's all neck and neck.
Not only is the season series tied up at 3 games a piece, but each team has scored 28 runs in those 6 games. Add in the fact that the O's are four games ahead of the Yankees for 2nd place in the AL East, and you understand how even these two teams are.
The Yankees will definitely want to defend their home field and come out on top of this series. and We've got a great pitching matchup for tonight!

Can the Orioles Handle Domingo?
If you weren't aware, Domingo Germán pitched the 24th perfect game in MLB history his last start.
Do we think he can do it again? Against this Orioles team?
Personally, I don't think so, but of course its tough to deny what he is capable of.
With Germán and Wells both on the bump, I think we get a low scoring pitching duel, that may be on the boring side for recreational baseball fans. These two guys are very meticulous with their stuff, and have very low ERAs to back up their abilities.
I'll definitely take this under and run.
The Pick: NYY/BAL Under 8.5 (-105) Bovada
Player Props
Tyler Wells over 5.5 Strikeouts (-105)
Wells has cleared this line in 63% of games this season, including twice against the Yankees. He had 8 Ks in just 5 innings in his last start at Yankee Stadium this year.
Wells has struck out 6 in 8 of his last 9 starts, and he's done it in three straight, both overall and on the road.
The Yankees don't necessarily strikeout a ton, especially against righties, but Wells still puts up 1.03 Ks/Inning, and averages 7 in his two starts against New York.
For nearly even money, I think Wells can have himself a solid outing on the mound and help the O's keep this one low scoring.
And of course, we've got to fade the guy coming off a perfect game, right?
