Baltimore at Los Angeles

We got the 1-0 win on the Angels yesterday. Despite failing to score early on with the bases loaded and one out, they were able to shut out the O's to get the win. That's how bad Balimore can be on the road. The Orioles are now 25-42 away from home scoring 4.4 per game. Over their last seven games they are averaging just 3.9 per game. I felt good going into the late innings last night as the Angels bullpen has a 20-5 save mark and 3.24 ERA at home. Tonight it doesn't get any easier for the struggling Baltimore offense as they face John Lackey who has a 3.63 ERA. Facing him is Kris Benson who is 1-5 since July. Teams off a win by 2 runs or less facing an opponent after scoring 1 run or less 2 straight games are 104-52 (67%) over the last 5 seasons. Angels again here.
