The Los Angeles Dodgers will play the Baltimore Orioles in Game 3 of their series on Wednesday afternoon at Camden Yards in Baltimore, Maryland. 

Dodgers Preview

The Los Angeles Dodgers are 55-39 this season and they have won eight of their last nine games. The Dodgers have won the first two games in this series by scores of 6-4 and 10-3. The LA pitching staff has a 4.35 ERA, a 1.25 WHIP, and a .243 opponent batting average this season. The Dodgers offense has scored 522 runs with a .244 batting average and a .332 on base percentage. Freddie Freeman is batting .323 with 17 home runs and 64 RBI’s for the Dodgers. The projected starting pitcher for Los Angeles is Julio Urias, who is 7-5 with a 4.35 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP over 70.1 innings pitched this year. 

Orioles Preview

The Baltimore Orioles are 57-37 this season and they have won eight of their last ten games. Prior to losing the first two games in this series, Baltimore won all three games against the Marlins. The Baltimore pitching staff has a 4.21 ERA, a 1.31 WHIP, and a .252 opponent batting average. The Orioles offense has scored 465 runs with a .254 batting average and a .324 on base percentage this year. Anthony Santander is batting .273 with 17 home runs and 54 RBI’s for the Orioles. The projected starting pitcher for Baltimore is Dean Kremer, who is 10-4 with a 4.59 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP over 104.0 innings pitched this season.

Trends

Los Angeles is 8-1 in their last 9 games. The over is 5-0 in Los Angeles’ last 5 interleague road games. Baltimore is 8-2 in their last 10 games and 7-1 in Kremer’s last 8 interleague starts. The over is 3-0-1 in Kremer’s last 4 starts as an underdog. 

Pick

The Dodgers have hit the ball very well in the first two games of this series and they have scored 16 runs in the two wins. LA is starting Julio Urias, who has allowed 0, 2, and 5 earned runs in three starts since coming off of the IL. Baltimore is starting Dean Kremer, who has allowed three earned runs or fewer in four of his last five starts. I think we are going to see another high scoring game here and I like the over.
