Red Sox Chase Record Win Streak in Doubleheader
23 Jul
Summary
- Red Sox aim for franchise record with two games today.
- Orioles pitcher Dean Kremer faces Red Sox lefty Jake Bennett.
- Taylor Ward is favored to exceed 1.5 total bases.
A doubleheader between the Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles is scheduled for today, July 22, following yesterday's postponement. The Red Sox have an opportunity to set a new franchise record for the longest win streak by winning both matchups. The first game is set to commence at 1:35 PM EDT at Fenway Park.
Baltimore's probable pitcher is right-hander Dean Kremer, who has a 4.15 ERA. The Red Sox will counter with left-hander Jake Bennett, boasting a 5-3 record and a 2.35 ERA. Despite Boston's impressive streak, analysis indicates potential vulnerabilities, particularly against right-handed pitching.
One betting prediction focuses on Orioles batter Taylor Ward to achieve over 1.5 total bases, citing his .292 batting average and .900 OPS against left-handed pitchers this season. The Orioles are favored by some to end the Red Sox's streak, with odds of +135 for an upset.
