Dismal Baltimore just finished a nine-game homestand where they went 3-6, getting outscored 44-27. Now they head out on the road to face an angry N.Y. Yankees squad that was embarrassed at home last night by rival Boston, watching the Red Sox celebrate a division title on their turf. Baltimore doesn't do anything well at #28 in runs scored, last in on-base percentage, and #25 in slugging. Starter Yefry Ramirez (5.50 ERA) has allowed 83 base runners in 55+ innings, including 30 walks. He is winless on the road this season with a ghastly 11.34 ERA. He has faced New York twice this season and lost both times with a 7.50 ERA. Baltimore is 17-58 on the road, plus 16-35 when following an off day. The powerhouse NY Yankees are second in runs scored and slugging, and ninth in on-base percentage. They are also in a battle for the Wild Card spot, on a 70-30 run at home, including 45-18 at home against a right-handed starter. Veteran C.C. Sabathia pitches well at home with a 3.13 ERA here in 2018, and the team is 23-8 when he starts at Yankee Stadium. These teams met last month and the Yankees won all four games by double-digits. Play the N.Y. Yankees on the runline.
