Game Preview

Following underwhelming weekend performances, the Baltimore Orioles head to Boston to face the Red Sox in a pivotal series between American League East rivals starting Monday.

Baltimore (82-62) comes off two consecutive losses to Tampa Bay, including a shutout on Sunday, its sixth of the season. Orioles manager Brandon Hyde highlighted the team’s post-All-Star break struggles, noting a pressing offense trying to swing too hard. Despite these issues, the Orioles remain just a half-game behind the New York Yankees for the division lead, thanks to the Yankees’ recent loss.

"Our guys do a great job staying grounded and ready for what’s next," said catcher Adley Rutschman, underscoring the team’s resilience.

The Orioles will look to left-hander Cade Povich (2-7, 5.76 ERA) to continue his momentum from a career-best outing, where he threw 7 1/3 scoreless innings against the White Sox.

Meanwhile, the Red Sox (72-71) failed to complete a sweep against the struggling Chicago White Sox, losing the series finale in a late-game collapse. Manager Alex Cora emphasized the importance of winning games against weaker teams given the tight playoff race.

Boston hopes to reignite its offense which showed signs of life with two home runs in their last game, despite the loss. The Red Sox will start Brayan Bello (12-7, 4.75 ERA), who looks to rebound from a tough outing against the Mets after a dominant performance against Toronto.

This series marks a critical juncture for both teams as they push for postseason positioning.
