Final Betting Pick

The Reds have a strong case for the MoneyLine pick at 133. Their pitching staff leads with a 3.08 ERA and a .199 batting average against. Andrew Abbott’s recent performance, allowing only one earned run in five innings, adds to this strength. The Orioles, on the other hand, have a higher team ERA of 4.30 and allow a .280 batting average against, which could work in the Reds’ favor.

Choosing the Under 9.0 (-103) seems reasonable given the Reds’ pitching. The Reds’ team batting average is .213, which ranks 24th, indicating they may not score heavily. The Orioles have a better batting average but face a tough Reds pitching lineup. With both teams having some struggles at the plate, a lower-scoring game is likely.
