Baltimore at New York

The Baltimore Orioles are out of the gate quickly, but so are the NY Yankees. The Orioles appeared to be heading for a series opening win at the Stadium last night, but suffered a serious meltdown when they saw a 9-1 lead evaporate, and were walked off 14-11 by a Matt Holliday three-run home run. You have to think that this team has a sour taste in its mouth and will come out blazing for Game 2. The Os turn to recent Yankee killer, Ubaldo Jimemez for today's contest. Jimenez has Baltimore to five wins in his last six starts vs. the Bronx Bombers, 2-1 on the road. The Yankees counter with Michael Pineda who suffered an 8-1 loss his last time facing the Orioles at the Stadium. The advantage is for the visitor, as well as the pitching matchup, so back Baltimore.
