The Orioles remain last in the AL East and have continued to struggle on the road, going just 6-14 away from home this season. Despite solid pitching performances, they’ve been let down by their offense, which has failed to capitalize — especially against left-handed pitching, hitting just .177.
Baltimore will start ace Zach Eflin, returning from the injured list with a 3.00 ERA over three starts this year. His return is a much-needed boost, but the pressure will be on the offense to give him any run support.
Betting On Los Angeles Angels
- 1XBet Spread:
- 1XBet Over/Under:
- 1XBet Moneyline:
The Angels are at the bottom of the AL West but are in a slightly better position when Tyler Anderson starts. The lefty is 2-0 with a 2.68 ERA and has been reliable at home (2.66 ERA). The Angels are 6-1 in games he’s started and will look to keep that streak going.
Their offense is nothing spectacular, but their .229 batting average with runners in scoring position should be enough against a cold Orioles lineup.
MatchPlug Prediction For Orioles vs Angels
With both teams slumping, this is likely to be a tight, low-scoring affair.
However, the Angels have the edge due to Anderson’s consistency and Baltimore’s inability to hit left-handed pitching. Look for Los Angeles to do just enough to cover.
Final Prediction: Los Angeles Angels -1.5
