Boston Red Sox vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction

I’ll stay with the Red Sox. Pivetta has been solid over his last two starts, but he’s just 0-1 in that time. Over that pair Pivetta has three earned in 12.0 innings on 12 hits and four walks. As for Kremer, he’s coming off 6.0 clean frames in a win over the Rays, but had seven earned in 9.1 innings prior to that.

On Tuesday the Sox didn’t get enough offense on seven team hits. Boston had a couple of bad innings on the mound, including two earned in a rough effort from Brennan Bernardino. I like Boston to bounce back Wednesday, but they’ve got to keep the bats going.
