Baltimore Orioles vs. Tampa Bay Rays

If familiarity breeds contempt, there should be animosity aplenty on Thursday when the Baltimore Orioles and the Tampa Bay Rays meet at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

The Orioles will pin their hopes on the pitching of right hander Dean Kremer in this game. Kremer has a 1-0 record and a 1.64 ERA this season.

The Rays will counter Kremer with Tyler Glasnow. Right hander Glasnow has a 4.47 ERA to go along with a 3-1 record this season.

The Orioles were a 5-1 winner in their most recent outing on the road against the Braves. That made winners of bettors who got Baltimore at 168 on the moneyline, while the total score (6) was good news for UNDER bettors.
