The Red Sox just got embarrassed 11-0 by the Devil Rays, but we think they'll bounce back here. Boston is 25-6 at home after a 5+ run loss, 9-1 at home after a loss in which they allowed 1 or fewer walks and 27-11 in the first game of a home series.<br>
The Orioles are off a 7-1 win over the Yankees while outing them 14-1, but don't expect a similar performance here.
Baltimore is 7-16 after a win in which they had 12+ hits, 5-15 on the road after scoring 6+ runs and a gutless 14-21 as a favorite over a team that has a better record.<br>
The Orioles send bedard to the hill tonight, but the Orioles are 1-11 when Erik Bedard starts on the road when they lost the last time he started -- and he's favored here!?<br>
With the Orioles 5-18 their last 23 when playing the first game of a road series, we see no reason why not to take the home dog.
