Hey, would you look at that, the Orioles beat the Cardinals at home yesterday. If you had Baltimore as one of your picks you’re either lying or you saw something that the majority of people around didn’t take notice to, but yes, the Orioles won and they are ready to go out once again today and try to topple the Cardinals at home in St. Louis for the second game of their interleague series. For Baltimore, Spenser Watkins will be taking the mound, hoping to score his first win of the season, after having his previous start be called as no decision, while for St. Louis, the starting pitching responsibility will fall on Miles Mikolas who is coming off a decent outing in the Cards 7-1 win over the Giants from a few days ago.
Game Preview
The Orioles man, the Baltimore Orioles everyone. With yesterday’s win that’s three in a row for a team that was deemed to baseball’s lowly bottom according to experts before the season started. Now, yes, they are not the best team in the league, not even their division, but Baltimore is picking up the pace very nicely and yesterday’s win against St. Louis came as the perfect moment to truly get some sort of momentum going for this team.
Austin Hays and Cedric Mullins and Ryan Mountcastle at the helm of the offense continue to play very good baseball and against a much stronger team like the St. Louis Cardinals being able to score fast and keep the score in your favor is something that all opponents need if they wish to score a win. From a pitching perspective, if we take what Baltimore’s starter Kyle Bradish accomplished yesterday, striking out eleven batters in seven strong innings, then please, please give the Orioles a chance here today as well. Of course, following a performance like that will be tough but if pitcher Spenser Watkins can pull off a feat like the one Bradish did yesterday, the Orioles could have a very strong chance to take the series lead here.
If you’re the St. Louis Cardinals on the other hand, taking another loss like the one they endured yesterday, where their batting order got shattered by Baltimore’s pitching staff is not something that can happen. After losing three straight games, including yesterday’s, it’s time for St. Louis’ bats to wake up and go for it all today. If the lineup decides to play offensively like Norlan Arenado has been doing all season then they will have a sure win, especially since their best pitcher when it comes to ERA, Miles Mikolas, will be in charge of shutting down the Orioles’ offense.
