Baltimore has to win a game one of these days and tonight is a good opportunity as Atlanta hitters are batting only .220 in 77 at-bats against Matt Harvey, who has shown flashes of his younger days in the majors when he was a feared pitcher. Drew Smyly is usually good for no more than four innings and he has a 4.52 ERA and .291 opponent batting average on the road this season. The Braves have lost 11 of their past 14 versus AL East teams and they are 3-10 as interleague favorites. Baltimore actually has won five of six interleague home games versus left-handed starters. Look for Baltimore to finally break through with a victory and play the Orioles.
