Baltimore enter the game with a 49-52 record, coming off a seven-game winning streak of their own. In their last outing, the visitors scored five runs but committed four defensive errors, which allowed Boston to maintain their winning momentum.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Jake Bennett takes the mound for Boston with a 5-3 record, a 2.35 ERA, and 38 strikeouts. The left-hander has started the season confidently, rarely allowing hard contact and managing to avoid giving up too many free passes. His main task will be to prevent Baltimore's right-handed hitters from gaining an early advantage.
Dean Kremer holds a 1-2 record, a 4.15 ERA, and has struck out 29 batters. The visiting pitcher's stats are noticeably weaker compared to Bennett's, and Boston is currently capitalizing on mistakes in the strike zone. Kremer will need precise execution from the first inning, as an early deficit could force Baltimore to rely on their relievers sooner than planned.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
Baltimore have the potential to halt the hosts' winning streak if they deliver a much cleaner defensive performance. However, Boston consistently find ways to secure victories even under less-than-ideal circumstances and hold an edge in the starting matchup. Bennett is having a season with a 2.35 ERA and is capable of containing the visitors' offense in the early innings. Kremer faces a lineup that has won 14 consecutive games and capitalizes well on free bases. The head-to-head stats also favor the Red Sox. Our final pick is a Boston Red Sox victory.
