Tampa Bay @ Baltimore
Pick: Baltimore -144

This is the 10th straight road game of a brutal 11-game trip for the Rays. After starting the season 6-0, Tampa Bay starter Matt Andriese (4.46 ERA) dropped seven straight decisions. The Rays are on a 12-28 run on the road, as well as 4-14 in Andriese's last 18 starts. He is also 0-3 with a 9.24 ERA in five games versus the Orioles. Tampa Bay is weak offensively, #21 in runs scored, #27 in on-base percentage and 13-45 on the road against a team with a winning record. They face a Baltimore offense that is ninth in runs, third in slugging, and 40-16 at home vs. a team with a losing record. Chris Tillman (16-5, 3.68 ERA) is back from a stint on the shelf, picking right up where he left off with a win at Detroit, 3-1. Tillman is 3-0 with a 3.04 ERA in four starts against Tampa Bay this season and the Orioles are 22-6 in his last 28 starts. Baltimore is also 12-5 against the Rays this season, including 7-1 at Camden Yards, and also has won 10 of the last 13 meetings overall.
