Pitching Matchup

In his most recent outing, JP Sears faced the Guardians and allowed three runs on eight hits across 4 2/3 innings. Although he didn’t get the win or the loss, his team, the Athletics, won the game by a score of 4-3.

Kyle Gibson has an overall record of 2-0, and will get the start for the Orioles. With two appearances, his ERA currently stands at 4.50, while his K/9 figure is 0.7. Additionally, he has a FIP of 4.66 and an OBP of .304.

The last time Kyle Gibson took to the mound, he secured a quality start and a win for his team, who won by a final score of 7-2 against the Rangers. Gibson gave up two runs and six hits across seven innings.

Baltimore Orioles Top Hitters vs. Lefties

Free MLB Pick

The Athletics have just two wins over nine games, but one did come in JP Sears’ start. He pitched a so-so 4 2/3 innings giving up three earned runs on eight hits and picking up a ND. He had two starts against the Birds last season and pitched well, allowing two earned runs over 11 innings and striking out 10. The Orioles have scored three or fewer runs in three of their last four and faced a reliever who hasn’t looked sharp as a starter in the game that they surpassed that total. The Oakland offense has been nearly as bad as its pitching, hitting a combined .192 with an OPS of .584. Baltimore starter Kyle Gibson has looked pretty good this season in two starts, especially his last one, where he held the Rangers to just two runs over seven innings. His back numbers against the projected line-up aren’t strong, but as stated, the A’s offense has been dismal. I’m banking on at least one team struggling to put runs on the board and taking the Under 8.5.
