Pittsburgh has a winning road mark and is 9-4 in Game 1 of a series. The offense is 12th in the majors in runs scored, Top 10 in on-base percentage, and 13th in slugging while leading the league in steals. The Pirates also have the league's seventh-best bullpen. Baltimore has lost three of five during a challenging situational stretch. They played a 10-game road trip, then came home and took two of three in a divisional series against Tampa Bay, the best team in the league. The Orioles are favored but starter Kyle Bradish (5.95 ERA) has struggled allowing 34 base runners in 19+ innings with batters hitting .309 off him. Play Pittsburgh.
