Game Preview
While not a surprise for many, yesterday the New York Yankees took down the Baltimore Orioles without much trouble as Kyle Bradish couldn’t contain the Yankees offense early on in the game, giving them a 3-run lead by the 4th inning. But this shouldn’t have shocked anyone, the New York Yankees are currently the leaders in the league standings, sitting on 26 wins and only 6 losses, which is quite impressive even for the Yankees.
For today’s game, Jameson Taillon will start for the Yankees and is looking to get his first win against the Orioles. The 30-year-old pitcher from Lakeland has started four times against Baltimore, including two this year, and hasn’t managed to win a single time. He ‘s given two home runs to Orioles’ Cedric Mullins, but he will try to switch things up today as his overall stats this season aren’t looking too bad, he carries a 2.93 ERA and 1.17 WHIP, which might be just enough to take over this game.
On the Orioles’ side, Spenser Watkins will open up the game for them, making this his second start of the season. The last time we saw him open up a game was against the St. Louis Cardinals, where he couldn’t find his footing. “It’s always a drive as a starting pitcher to give your bullpen a rest and give your team a chance to win and go deep in the game,” said Watkins after his game against the Cardinals, where he allowed 7 runs to the opposition.
His stats over the two games he’s pitched in are lackluster, he sits on a 5.19 ERA and 1.58 WHIP, which indicates that the Baltimore Orioles might have a tough time early on in the game unless the Yankees’ offense mess up really badly. And as we all know, the New York Yankees offense right now is one of the best in the entire league, making things look almost impossible for the Baltimore Orioles in this upcoming match.
